Candied orange peel

Candied orange peel

Overview

When I was packing my things, I found a small bottle of perfume, which I gave as a gift when I attended a fragrance lecture last year. I am a carefree person and don’t need these things, but I am quite curious about the knowledge behind it that I don’t know. After listening to a literacy lecture, I learned that fragrance is divided into top fragrance, middle fragrance and tail fragrance. The top scent is the fastest to evaporate, and is generally the refreshing smell of citrus substances. For example, the earliest perfume, 4711 (actually) specially created for men, is a citrus-flavored perfume. In fact, the same goes for baking. Everyone prefers lemon peels and citrus peels. When drinking tea, they also like grapefruit peel tea. In fact, oranges, oranges, grapefruits, lemons and tangerines are all closely related hybrids. They are similar and all have a special fragrance. I prefer the flavor of orange. Lemon is a bit strong, but grapefruit is too mild. The orange hybrid between orange and grapefruit is the most suitable for the appetite. Generally, I am not willing to throw away the orange peel. I can make it into orange peel tea or candied orange peel. Adding a little to toast or pound cake is definitely the finishing touch~ It seems that the human stomach also likes moderation.
