Servings: Makes 2 cups
INGREDIENTS
2 large red or pink grapefruits
1 cup sugar, plus more for tossing
PREPARATION
1) Cut the peel away, leaving about ¼” of white pith
attached to the peel.
2) Cut peel lengthwise into 3/8”-wide strips.
3) Place strips in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, drain, and repeat two more times to reduce bitterness.

4) After blanching, the pith will appear slightly
translucent.
5) Simmer peel in sugar syrup until the pith is completely translucent and the strips are very soft, about 15 minutes.
6) Drain and let strips dry completely on a wire rack—they’ll firm up as they sit. Toss in granulated sugar.

7) To make this grapefruit peel even more gorgeous, skip
the sugar and dip the strips into melted chocolate.
