Blood oranges. 15kg. box.
The blood orange is a small variety of orange with dark red flesh, similar to raspberry juice. This red color is usually uneven, and its flesh can take on different shades. It belongs to the sweet orange group, but its size is smaller and its flavor is more acidic than the common orange. Its peel is partially reddish, and in some cases, it is barely noticeable compared to a common orange. It is harder and more difficult to peel. Its color depends on the strong temperature fluctuations between day and night while the fruit is growing.
The blood orange has the same properties as the sweet orange, but its sweet and sour flavor and the different shades of its flesh make it very attractive for making jams and juices, or for baking. These characteristics make it an innovative ingredient in the kitchen, both for garnishing dishes and for dressing salads. However, despite the many ways it can be consumed, the most traditional way is to drink its juice directly from the orange itself, carefully squeezing it until it is soft and cutting off the top to sip from it.
The best of oranges and red fruits.. That's how we could define the blood orange.
Its dark color is due to the fact that its flesh contains anthocyanins, a type of pigment found in all fruits and vegetables ranging in color from blue to purple to red, but very rare in citrus fruits.
