Orange yes, but candied!
Delicious Sicilian sweet, with an intoxicating scent rich in vitamin C, a panacea for this winter period, excellent at the end of a meal or as a snack.
The orange peel is worked with a delicate artisan process keeping everything
the characteristic aroma.
The preservation of foods through sugars, in history, was often the only known method that has its origins in the East, in fact the Arabs used to serve candied fruit and flowers in their banquets.
Candied fruit is today the main ingredient of many Sicilian sweets. Just think of the classic panettone with orange candied fruit, almond paste, or simply the natural or glazed candied orange peel.
