In today's episode, I want to show you how to make Oleo Saccharum at home using four different citrus zest. This Oleo Saccharum recipe is simple and uses grapefruit, orange, lemon and lime zest.
But first, what is actually an Oleo Saccharum?
The word itself means oily sugar or, perhaps more appetisingly, sugared oil.
Oleo Saccharum is an ingredient in cocktails and punches that was commonly used in 19th-century bartending to provide an elegantly citrusy flavour and aroma to alcoholic beverages.
You can make Oleo Saccharum from many other fruits and not only citrus. Of course, every fruit or peel has a different level of oil or not any at all but still possible. The sugar will break through the fruit and, while melting, extract any oil and flavour. This will leave you with reach and delicious fruity sugared syrup.
