Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Remove excess white vesicles from grapefruit peels, soak them in salted water for 2 days, and change the water several times during this period. Wait until the water is no longer yellowish green, mainly to remove the bitterness of the skin.

   

2. 2 Cut into strips and boil in water for 5 minutes

   

3. 3 After taking it out, rinse and change the water several times, then squeeze out the water. The drier the better!

   

4. 4 Pour a bowl of water into a non-stick pan, add rock sugar, and cook the white sugar over low heat until it melts into syrup. The rock sugar will take a little longer to melt.

   

5. 5 Then pour in the grapefruit peel, stir evenly so that each piece of peel is coated with syrup, and continue to stir-fry while cooking until half-frozen syrup is no longer visible and turn off the heat.

   

6. 6 Wait until it cools down and stir evenly until the frosting is all over. You can’t stop having snacks for friends in autumn and winter!
