Blood Oranges

blood oranges Blood oranges are mostly grown in California and Australia.

Small to medium in size, a blood orange has a deep burgundy red interior. The fruit is seedless and easy to peel, less acidic than common oranges, "with raspberry and strawberry overtones". Used in fruit salads and sauces, it also makes beautiful juice. Choose firm fruit, heavy for its size. Avoid one with blemishes or shriveled skin. It should have a sweet fresh fragrance.

Store at room temperature for up to one week or refrigerate for up to two weeks.

Cranberries
