Cooks' Question

Why do you always recommend whole candied peel rather than the more readily available ready-cut peel?

Response

If you buy this whole and cut it as you need it, you will find it has a great deal more flavour than the ready-cut peel. It will keep almost indefinitely in a screw-top jar, so it is worth buying a stock of it when it is readily available at Christmas time. If you can't find it in your local supermarket, try a specialist food shop or health food store.
