Carmelized Orange Slices

These are used primarily for cocktail garnishes. I’m sure there could be other uses, but that’d be a stretch.

Ingredients:

• Orange(s)
• Sugar

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
2. Cut orange(s) into thin slices, removing any seeds
3. Dissolve 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of water, bring to a boil (boom, just made simple syrup).
4. Put orange slices in, submerging them in the syrup.
5. Bring to a boil, then let the whole thing simmer for about 10 mins.
6. Remove orange slices and add to a rack to cool.
7. Put the orange slices onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silpat.
8. Bake in oven 10 mins.
9. Flip and bake another 10 mins.
