Ari Rapkin

4 cups fresh orange juice
3/4 cup sugar
3 tsp arrowroot, dissolved in 2 tsp water
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp grated lemon zest
2 tsp grated orange zest
candied orange zests, optional, for garnish

In a medium-large, non-reactive saucepan over medium heat, reduce orange juice to 2 cups. Add sugar and dissolved arrowroot to reduced orange juice. Simmer for 1 minute, until mixture is very slightly thickened.

Cool. Add lemon juice and lemon & orange zests. Cover and refrigerate until needed. Sauce will be thin. Sauce keeps, refrigerated, for at least 3 weeks.

To serve, spoon onto plate next to dessert. Decorate with candied orange zests, if desired.
