CANDIED LIME WHEELS
This is an easy recipe that you can multiply as many times as you need. Pictured are three limes. I've been working for a while to make a candied lime that I enjoy, one that's not too bitter or the rind too hard, and I've finally achieved that.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 200°F. Spray baking rack with cooking spray and place on baking sheet.
- 2. Using a knife or mandolin, slice limes into roughly 1/8 inch slices.
- 3. Put lime wheels in pot and cover with water. Bring water to boil and strain.
- 4. Cover lime wheels with water a second time, boil, strain, repeat, for a total of three boils. It's okay to stop at two boils if the membranes are starting to fall apart.
- 5. Add to a clean pot the thrice-boiled lime wheels and an equal part by weight granulated sugar and a half-part clean water (for instance; 4oz limes, 4oz sugar, 2oz water).
- 6. Boil on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until water is almost completely boiled away.
- 7. Using tongs (sugar will be HOT) pull the lime wheels out and lay them across the baking rack and bake for 1hr, rotating the pan halfway through. You can let them go longer if you want the sugars to caramelize a bit.
- 8. Remove from oven and toss/rub lime wheels with sugar while still hot so it can adhere. The extra sugar offsets the rind and allows them to be stored together without sticking.

CANDIED LIME SLICES
Right after joining RZ, I tried & was not able to find a recipe for candied limes, but Chef Neta kindly helped me find this 1 at the Food Network website. Twice since then questions have come up about candied limes, so I thot I would post the recipe. I modified the prep slightly to make it easier & more clear. I use the slices mainly to garnish lime-based beverages, desserts or baked goods, but also cut in sml pieces to add color & flavor to trail mix or add as a sml item to add variety & color to gift baskets. There are prob many more uses that have not occurred to me. Time does not include the drying time.

Steps:
- Slice limes into thin rounds, blanch in a pot of boiling water for 2 min & drain.
- In the same pot, combine water & 1 cup sugar. Bring to a simmer & add lime slices. Simmer for 10-15 min, till white pith of limes looks translucent (May take longer if pith is esp thick or dense).
- Drain & spread out on a cooling rack to dry for at least 1 hour.
- Put 2 tbsp sugar in shallow bowl or saucer. When limes are dry, coat both sides of the lime slices by pressing them into the sugar (May need more sugar for good coverage).
- Store in an airtight container & layer between parchment paper or plastic wrap till ready to use. I freeze these when I make a batch & then just take out what I need to use.

CANDIED LEMON PEEL
This is a good way to use up lemon rind and it goes good with coffee or on cake. It really does taste like candy, and you can do this to ANY citrus fruit. If you use oranges you can add brandy, cloves or other spices the mixture. Chop it up and put it in cookies, or just eat it by itself.

Steps:
- Cut lemons into slices about 1/4 inch thick and remove the fruit pulp. Cut the rings in half so the peels are in long strips.
