Ingredients
2 lemons
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
Directions
Wash the lemons and slice 1/4 inch thick
Bring the sugar and water to a boil in a large saucepan until the sugar dissolves.
Add the lemons, and cover the surface with a round of parchment paper.
Reduce heat to medium low and simmer gently until the rinds are translucent, about 30 minutes.
Let the lemons cool in the syrup
Take the cool lemons out of the syrup and dry on a rack sitting on a cookie sheet
Reserve the syrup to use as a glaze for the bread and also makes a great syrup for pancakes
