I zest the entire orange before I do anything else with it. It makes the best flavoring for orange icing for cookies or cakes! I do that with lemons and limes, too. Candied orange peel is delicious, too, and a healthy sweet, and of course I make my own orange marmalade! It is so easy and tastes so, so good on my homemade English muffins! One of my favs, though, is orange sorbet (can make as popsicles). Only after I have a good sized jar of zest would I use the rest for making cleaner. A good orange goes a long, long way! I have a neighbor with a tree, so I look forward to December/January here in central Florida. <br /><br /> Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00313716079029892053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326112551659962413.post-26286116993739603782013-08-12T23:15:28.171-07:002013-08-12T23:15:28.171-07:00Trader joes has USA mandarins.

I have a tree loaded with satsuma mandarins, and needed to know if I could preserve whole segments in syrup for summer consumption. I intend scraping the pith from the peel with a sharpened spoon, then placing the cleaned peel into the pot with sugar and fresh squeezed mandarin juice then heating until the sugar has dissolved. I will then strain the peel out of the flavoured syrup and use this to can the the prepared mandarin segments as per your recipe Can anyone see a problem with this idea?.

They can each easily eat an entire can themselves and still want more. I am jealous of whoever posted that the cans are .25 by them! The cheapest I can find the smalls cans are around .70 each. I can not wait to try it once citrus season is in full swing again. I am leery about canning them in the membranes so I think I will supreme them. Do you think you could replace fruit juice (like white grape) for the sugar water? I prefer my kids have their fruit packed in 100% fruit juice but I have a very hard time finding it in the stores.
