Candied Lemon Peel
This candied lemon peel recipe is a good way to use up lemon rind and goes well with coffee or dessert. It really does taste like candy, and you can use this method for any citrus fruit. If you use oranges you can add brandy, cloves, or other spices to the mixture. Chop it up and put it in cakes or cookies, or just eat it by itself.
