Description
Valencia oranges are reputed for their exceptional juice. Medium to large in size, this orange has a thin easy-to-peel smooth deep orange colored rind. Slightly more acidic than the navel orange, it has only a few seeds. Valencia oranges continue to ripen after harvest; the longer this popular orange ripens, the sweeter the taste. Valencia orange’s nearly seedless pulp makes it ideal for juicing. Use in syrups, cocktails, smoothies or marinades. Pair Valencia orange segments with olives, mint, feta, onions, rice, chiles, melons, root vegetables, poultry, seafood, pastries and baked goods. Use as juice and zest to compliment butter, creams, honey, custards and vinaigrette.
