 Categories: Candy
      Yield: 6 servings
 
      3 c  Citrus peel; cut into strips
           -from:
      4 md Oranges; up to 5
      6 md Lemons
      2    Grapefruit
     12 c  Water; cold
  2 1/2 c  Sugar
    1/2 c  Honey
  1 3/4 c  Water; boiling
  
  Wash fruit. Score peel into quarters. Remove sections of peel with
  fingers; cut into uniform strips about 3/8" wide. Boil peel with 6
  cups cold water, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse. Repeat
  process with 6 cups fresh water.
  
  In a large saucepan, combine 1-1/2 cups sugar, honey, and boiling
  water. Bring to a boil, and boil about one minute. Add cooked,
  drained peel and briskly simmer until almost all of the syrup has
  been absorbed, about 30 to 40 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid
  sticking.
  
  Transfer peel to collander. Drain well, about 10 minutes. In large
  bowl, toss drained peel with remaining 1 cup sugar to coat well.
  Spread pieces out on waxed paper to dry. Store in tightly covered
  container.
