      Title: Candied Orange Peel
 Categories: Five, Citrus, Chocolate
      Yield: 12 peels

     1 lg Navel orange
   3/4 c  Sugar
   1/2 c  Water
   1/2 c  Semi-sweet chocolate chips

  Using a vegetable peeler, cut the orange part of the peel from the
  stem end of the orange down to the navel end, forming long 3/4" to
  1" wide strips. Bring a heavy small saucepan of water to a boil.
  Add the peels and cook for 1 minute. Drain and then rinse the peels
  under cold water. Repeat cooking the peels in the saucepan with
  fresh boiling water and rinsing under cold water.

  Stir the sugar and 1/2 cup of fresh water in a heavy small saucepan
  over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil.
  Add the orange peels and simmer over medium-low heat until tender,
  about 15 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the peels to a sheet of
  parchment paper to dry slightly, about 1 hour.

  Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Stir the chocolate
  in a small bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water until melted
  and smooth. Dip 1-1/2 of each candied orange peel into the
  chocolate then place them on the prepared baking sheet and
  refrigerate until the chocolate is set, about 15 minutes.
