Steps

  1. 1

    Grate the peel of the citrons with a fine grater. 

  2. 2

    Cut them in half horizontally and score their peel vertically in 4-6 places. 

  3. 3

    Remove the pieces of peel carefully and cut each one into thin strips of about the thickness of a finger. 

  4. 4

    Boil them in plenty of water for 10 minutes and discard the first water. 

  5. 5

    Place them in tepid water and boil once more for an additional 10 minutes. 

  6. 6

    Strain the peels and place them in a large bowl with plenty of cold water for 24 hours changing the water often until the are no longer bitter.

  7. 7

    Strain them and let set them aside to drain. 

  8. 8

    Place the water and sugar in a pot to boil for about 15 minutes. 

  9. 9

    Add the peels and boil over strong heat for 5 minutes, allow it to let out its liquids and boil again on the next day until the syrup thickens, skimming off the foam. 

  10. 10

    Just a little while before you remove it from heat, add the glucose syrup and the lemon juice, shaking the pot (not stirring with a spoon because that will squash the sweet). 

  11. 11

    Your spoon sweet is done and has thickened when if you take a little of the syrup with a spoon and you allow it to run, the drops on a small plate stay tight and round and not expand.
