I hope you enjoy this video. As I said, you can find the detailed recipe step by step in the description. For sure it's not the simplest recipe you can find, but it's the one that will give you an amazing final product. This is part of two exciting projects that I am working on and which will arrive soon in the coming weeks. Ciao
Can anyone vouch that this long method creates a far superior product to the easy boil method most people use? It looks amazing at the end but for the time needed it would have to be exceptional for me to find the time.
I have tried the method where you keep the peels on the stovetop for 7-10 days, bringing the syrup to a boil each day, but haven’t seen this method of freezing the peels and keeping them in the refrigerator. Very interesting looking!
Hello Stefano, I've been searching to make the candied orange peel. I've tried it. It's come out great and then I stumbled on your programe here and I think this is the real deal. I'm making it right now to use on my cannoli recipe. Homemade orange candied peel is the best. Thank you for sharing your recipe..Big Hello from Australia
This is a beautiful recipe. I made it and turned out beautiful and delicious too, yum yum! Thank you. I want the dry version, so my question is how do I store them? Also what can I do with the delicious leftover syrup? Thank you.🤩
You are welcome. Yes you can use this method for pear and apple as well. They are just more delicate so be careful how you handle it during the last step of reducing the syrup each day. Also choose fruit not too ripe, not too green. Keep them skin on and cut it in quarters.
Looks like a great syrupy soft version.. Will definitely try.. Was wondering if you also have a dry version? For example if I wanted to do oranges that I could later coat in chocolate etc? Thank you
Thank you so very much for this video and tutorial...!!! It suggests and opens up other ways to preserve fruit such as freezing the product beforehand... Interesting...!!! I have been trying to do this for years now b/c I need to keep the fresh and vivid green color of limes at the same time I am doing this preserving... But color fades quickly after the first blanch and/or boil and I don't wish to use food colors in any form for there are NO variations in green that even get close to the true and natural green of fresh harvested limes... I admit I have not tried ascorbic acid to fix the color... I admit I have not tried using an unlined copper pot... But still, could you offer any idea of what to do...? Perhaps the freezing will do the trick...? I was even thinking of liquid nitrogent... Soaking in ash water...? But I do need to keep that beautiful chlorophyl color for the final product... I hope you can come to me with a suggestion... Thanks...!!!
Hello and thx for your comment. They last for a very long period stored in glass jars, here is how: Sterilize the jars by boiling them in water for 20 minutes together with the new caps. Meanwhile, drain the candied fruit on a grid and cut them to the size you prefer for storage or leave them whole. The syrup must be weighed and 100 grams of glucose syrup are added for each kg of syrup. I advise you to prepare a little syrup at a time, so as not to waste glucose. In the jars it will take very little. When the jars are manageable and dry, arrange the drained candied fruit inside them. Bring the syrup with the glucose to a boil, stirring occasionally. As soon as it begins to boil, pour the new boiling syrup into the jars with the candied fruit and close immediately. If you plan to keep candied fruit out of the fridge for a long time, boil the jars for about 20/30 minutes, for safe pasteurization.
Thank-you very much. May I please recommend you to slow your speech down just a hair. I found the recipe in the description so I'll be able to figure it out, but the video would be more enjoyable if you slowed down just a bit. Or if that is your preferred style, you do you
Hello, thank you for the recipe. I tried it, it ended up with the most delicious candied lemons. But I did the storage with the syrup left after the whole process. The result was the sugar in the jar was crystalized although I put glucose syrup in it. Do you prepare a new syrup for storage? If so what do you do with the syrup that was used in the process? Thank you.

If you have leftovers syrup you can use it for cocktails and beverages or to glaze croissants or cakes.

Would go great on top of lemon pie. Thank you for showing and teaching us your art.

It is a long process but I like the result very much. Thx for your comment
Yum! These were the tips I was looking for!

I ahve never seen the method before, very interesting. I will try this for myself!

Looks like someone is getting ready for the Christmas holiday😊

You can just simply remove the fruit from the syrup and dry it up with a towel. If you store in the fridge for one day will dry even more

Thank you for sharing. I was looking for this recipe fro longtime. Will be the same for candied abricot? As the fruit is lit fragile
How do you store them? Can they be frozen once prepared? Jarred? Dried?

Thanks for watching and your feedback will have a look on that 🙏
Where was the aspic? Is it mixed into the pork? (I had expected to see the pork wrapped around a piece of gelatin.)
I really want to try this method but it’s so insanely involved? I feel like I need to try the finished product first before committing to making it.

@@StefanoMerlo thanks chef we are waiting for the pandoro recipe
wow, no shortcuts
So you keep recycling the same syrup batch but keep adding more sugar to it ?
Hi Juan correct
@@StefanoMerlo So, for 7 days, I am to ADD MORE sugar to the syrup EACH time I re-boil it? thx!
@@leilanilaura7808 yes add more sugar according to the recipe in description, boil it for 3-5 min and pour it over the lemon peel when still hot.
Too complicated 🥵
Its too long a process sir and too much sugar.
chef i think you should open an instagram account
Thanks a lot for your suggestion🙏 I have it already @stefano.merlo.355 , I have to admit I’m not very good in social media, even if I know how important it is nowadays
it's never too late to start posting pictures of your art realisation I'll follow you right away I found your channel really useful and interesting 😁
Thank you so much 😊🙏🙏🙏
@@StefanoMerlo i still could not find your account
That’s strange… you can also find it in my TH-cam channel page, in the banner image on the right there are some links, the first one is my Instagram
Sorry, but that's just too much work.
