Blanch 2 times the zest strips : place the zest strips in cold water and bring it to a boil for 1 minute or so, then drain and repeat the process a second time. This process allows to remove the bitterness.
Put the drained zest strips in a small saucepan and add the same weight of sugar, then cover barely with water. Bring to a boil then lower immediately the heat to a simmer and cook slowly for 10 to 15 minutes or until the water is completely evaporated.
The orange zest has to be translucent and tender.
Enjoy!
