Citrus Medica

IMG_7945-001

In the lower left corner on a wood plate, is the candied rind of a true Citrus Medica (citron), considered the first citrus fruit in the Mediterranean.  The apothecary pot is filled with the receipt (recipe)  The American Citron which can be used in culinary uses of the candied original citron but  it does not have the original’s medicinal properties.
