Peels from 2-3 large oranges
1/4 cup of salt
Water
Instructions:
Prepare the Orange Peels:
Wash the oranges thoroughly under running water.
Peel the oranges, taking care to remove only the outer colored part of the peel to avoid the bitter white pith.
Boil the Mixture:
In a medium saucepan, combine the orange peels, salt, and enough water to cover the peels.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes. This allows the essential oils and flavors to infuse into the water and the salt to dissolve completely.
Strain and Store:
After boiling, allow the mixture to cool.
Strain the liquid, discarding the solid peels.
Store the infused liquid in a glass jar or bottle in the refrigerator.
