Add the peel and make sure it is evenly distributed through the mixture. The dough will be very crumbly. Using a scoop or soup spoon, take about 1-1/2 tb of dough at a time and squeeze/pat it into a flattened ball. Bake cookies at 350°F for 15-18 minutes, until lightly browned and fragrant. **** Candied peel is an ingredient we run into frequently in these early modern recipes. As we've discussed with some readers, candied peel is readily available in British supermarkets but not in most American ones, so we sometimes end up substituting zest to approximate the taste (if not texture) of the citrus peel. For the gingerbread, however, I wanted to see how the peel would work with the ginger and also thought the sticky peel might help these crumbly cookies hold together, so I made my own using this recipe.
