Behind the Scenes: Drying Tangerine Peel

Of all the stories to come out of our Chinese New Year recipes, one of the funniest was from our Hostess.

Tara's recipe for Salt Baked Chicken required dried tangerine peel.

An ingredient that caused the rest of us to back slowly away from the recipe.

Our stalwart leader, however, is also very inventive and decided to just peel and dry a tangerine peel in her oven.

Too bad she didn't tell her husband.

When she went to check on it, it was gone. Her husband had tossed it in the trash thinking it was, well, trash.

After she'd been drying it for hours.

Interestingly enough, not only was he still alive and well on the day of Supper Club, but she was able to dry more tangerine peel.

She's just that good.
