Part of the strong bird food forum series of megathreads



Hello this thread is for oranges discussion. Hopefully we can curtail orange chat derailing in other threads by keeping it all here.

Mandarin oranges are fun. The stem piece thing pops off and it's like an orange grenade as it releases the orange oil scents. They're fun to peel and to eat.

Do not buy florida oranges until after the first freezes hit north florida. They are at their best after a freeze.

I'll let y'all know.

Yes this one. You've gotta wait until Sevilles are in season first though. Seville oranges are the noblest of the citrus.

Not a bad recipe. This is a little more British though.

I'd not use white sugar for Marmalade. The darker sugars lend a deeper flavour, something more warm. And yes to whiskey in it. Why wouldn't you? How you cut the peel is to your own taste. I like thickish strips, and not so many that your toast is covered. They should be little pops here and there rather than a raft.

Just to re-emphasise. Good marmalade comes from good oranges. Though Seville are fantastic for it, don't turn down others. They could be ideal for what you want. And now I want some marmalade.

Still no freezes, citrus still not great. That and excessive rain give me low hopes for florida Honeybell season.

Just checked for Sevilles, and signs are poor. Girlfriend reports that Minneola tangelos are still very sour. Etrog and Buddha's Hand in abundance – moro blood oranges have good-looking rind at least. Profusion of cuties.

What do you do with an Etrog? My fancypants supermarket has them and they're the best smelling things ever.

Most commonly it's part of the Jewish Sukkot celebration, but even if you're not a Jew it's lovely when candied. I've used it in punch.

We had satsuma trees in my yard in southern Louisiana. They were wonderful but it's ruined me on oranges from any store now. While quite good just never really the same as right off of the tree.
