Your correspondent received a
nice box last week of crystalized
grapefruit peel. It is delicious and
I pass on the recipe for making : t.
Soak over night in strong salt wat
er the peel of one grapefruit, cut
into small strips. Put on to boil in
clear water, change water three
times, let boil 10 minutes each time,
take out, put into a syrup two cups
sugar and one cup water, cook un
til fruit has taken up all syrup,
then roll in granulated sugar. The
syrup may be colored with fruit
coloring. Mine was pink and
green and was pretty as well as
tasty.
