Problem: Article: Mandarin oranges or tangerines are good choices for this project. Different types of orange peels will produce different flavors or aromas, so don't be afraid to experiment until you find your favorite! Carefully wash the oranges with water and a fruit and veggie wash. When they are thoroughly clean, pat them dry with a clean dish towel. Starting at the top and center of the orange, run a knife along the peel from the top of the orange to close to the bottom. Do this three or four times to create even sections for easy peeling. Try not to cut into the flesh of the orange. Once you have made incisions in the skin, carefully peel it off, starting at the top. Try to keep the peel as intact as possible. Spread out the peels on a drying rack made of stainless steel mesh, Teflon-coated fiberglass, or plastic. Elevate the rack on blocks to promote air circulation underneath the peels, and to keep them off the ground, which may be damp. Put the rack in a place that will get plenty of direct sunlight throughout the day. A reflective sheet placed under the rack will help boost drying temperatures and dehydrate your peels more efficiently. Placing the rack on a hot concrete driveway can also be effective. Keep the peels in direct sunlight for three days or until they are completely hard and dry. Take the peels in at night to protect them from condensation, then set them out again in the morning. To get your peels to dry out properly, you will need temperatures of at least 86 F (30 C) and a humidity level of no more than 60%. A layer of cheesecloth over the orange peels will let sunlight in, but keep birds, insects, and other critters out. Tuck the edges of the cheesecloth under the tray to keep it from blowing away. Put your dried peels in a tightly sealed glass jar and store them in a cool, dark place. If stored properly, sun-dried orange peels can be kept for several years. The older the peels, the more intense the aroma and flavor.
Summary: Select an orange with a thin peel. Wash and dry the oranges. Make incisions in the peel with a sharp knife. Carefully remove the skin. Place the peels on an elevated drying rack. Put a sheet of aluminum foil or tin under the rack. Leave the peels in the sun for at least three days. Protect your peels with cheesecloth while they dry. Store your orange peels in an airtight container.
