Preparation:

Prepare two cookie sheets lined with waxed paper. In a 3-quart saucepan, melt sugar and water together until you have a clear liquid. Heat liquid to 240 degrees and remove to a cutting board. Whisk the solution until it cools and begins to turn opaque. Working quickly, add citron and pine nuts and stir through. Replace over heat if too stiff. Using a small soupspoon, drop irregular shapes onto waxed paper on cookie sheet and allow to harden. Source: MOLTO MARIO with Mario Batali From the TV FOOD NETWORK - (Show # MB-5710)
