p. 629, Oranges Glacees




At last I have finished Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking! After considering a simple recipe to try myself, I caved and went for this one. At least it doesn't have the ton of cream and/or butter like all of Julia's other recipes.

Here are the photos to show how I slaved over it this afternoon:

Six large, colorful oranges ready to go!


Making candied orange peel.

This was the killer part - took so long!


Macerating the cooked orange peel in orange liqueur.


Making the sugar syrup.


Glazing the oranges with the hot syrup.


Ta-da!

It did look great, but it wasn't so delicious that I would go through all that again. The book goes back to the library, and I can sleep well tonight.
