Oleo-Saccharum

Directions

1. 1
   Combine the citrus peels and sugar in a sturdy bowl or measuring cup or container. Mash with a muddler or spoon really well-pretend you're angry at the Oleo-Saccharum (maybe you are!).
2. 2
   Let it do its thing for at least 5 hours and up to 24 hours. Feel free to mix and mash every so often, if you're passing it by.
3. 3
   Strain out the citrus peels (really press on them in the sieve, to extract all that good oil) and store the oil in the fridge for up to a couple weeks.
