Grandmama Sally's Candied Grapefruit Peels

Cut grapefruit peels into strips.
Cover with cold water. Bring slowly to boil.
Remove from heat and drain well.
Repeat this proces, boiling the peels in five waters in all. Drain well each time.
Make a simple syrup allowing 1/4 cup water and
1/2 cup sugar to the peel of 1 grapefruit.
May Add red or green food coloring to the syrup for Christmas.
Add the peel and boil until all the syrup is absorbed.
Cool the peel and roll in sugar.
Spread out to dry.
Enjoy!!
