Step 1

Slice your  lemons as thin as possible and set them aside.

Step 2

Do this step if you want to blanch the slices: Set up a bowl of ice water. Heat water in a medium pan until boiling and then remove it from the heat. Add the lemon slices and stir for 1 minute and drain. Immediately, place the slices in the ice bath for 30 seconds and drain.

Step 3

In a wide bottomed pot, add the sugar and water and heat until the sugar is dissolves.Add the lemon slices and poach until translucent. Be patient, this can take 25-45 minutes depending on how thin you sliced it.

Step 4

Lay them out on a silcone or parchment lined baking sheet. Let them dry overnight or alternatively, bake the chips at 200°F turning them over occasionally. Bake them for about an hour or until they start to stiffen up. Let them cool.
