I steeped the peels in boiling water and covered the jug with a plate. Note: I don't own a teapot as I only ever make one cup at a time so used my glass pyrex measuring jug. Joshua is giving me a busy day today so I fogot I had them steeping so they were left there for over 30min I think and the water was luke warm, didn't bother me though as I can drink room temperature water flavoured with fruit or vegetabels.
that's a great idea, great to zest them for recipes you can freeze the zest until needed .shop brought oranges are quite often dipped in wax..so wash them really well first . but if you pick them yourself even better.
