DIY Dried Oranges: Supplies Needed by: On Sutton Place
Oranges
Cooling racks
Sharp knife & cutting board
Process:
- Slice the oranges. It’s best to keep the slices thin, but not too thin that they tear or stick. Try to make the slices ¼ to ½ inch thick and as uniform as possible.
- Lay the orange slices on paper towel and blot to remove as much juice as you can.
Transfer the orange slices to cooling racks.
Bake at 225 degrees for 2 to 3 hours, turning the slices every 30 minutes. (If you don’t turn them, they will most likely stick to your racks.) The slices will darken in color and become slightly translucent. Cool completely. Store in air tight containers or zip top bags.
