Here's just a sample of how winter citrus can add flavor to your favorite recipes. We recommend using every part of the citrus, not just whole pieces. The zest, juice and flesh can all enhance any number of dishes!
We often turn to citrus to lend sweet or bright notes to desserts, but it can also heighten savory flavors. Winter roots and greens are ideal companions, accommodating the full range of citrus flavors like the light sweetness of tangerines, clementines, and mandarins; sweet and sour grapefruit; or the complex bittersweetness of blood oranges.
In baked goods, citrus deepens flavor, lending complexity and nuance. Freshly squeezed juice adds a delicate sweetness, while zest can add fragrance, punching up the flavor with an edge of acidity.
