4 lbs. Yuzu with FedEx Shipping INCLUDED in the price)
“How will you yuzu?”

The Yuzu [pronounced: yoo-zoo] is a small Japanese citrus fruit that resembles the outward appearance of a tangerine in both size and shape; however that is where the similarities abruptly end. The yuzu is yellow in appearance, with many large seeds and a small quantity of bitter or sour juice. In fact, some yuzus lack juice entirely and are instead filled with a mass of just pith and seeds!

So what the “heck” do you do with yuzus if you can’t eat them?
Here is where traditional Japanese cuisine comes in!The Yuzu is a commonly used fruit in Japan. They are very aromatic with a deep “citrusy” floral scent. The juice flavor is like a tart, citrus, “fusion” of lemon and lime. The fragrant peel is often minced small and added as a garnish to both soup or broiled or simmered fish. Sauces are often made from yuzu, as well as candied peel from the rind. You might recognize a “hint” of its flavor here in America from your favorite Japanese restaurant, if you have ever used soy-sauce ponzu. Now you can find yuzu being used many different culinary ways, including yuzu “essence” being infused into “high end” vodka. So, “how will you yuzu?” With a little bit of cooking skill, a little imagination and some yuzus from Pearson Ranch…the culinary sky is the limit.

Did you know?… The Yuzu comes to us from East Asia, and is believed to be a hybrid of sour mandarin and a slow-growing species of citrus called; Ichang papeda.

When are Yuzus available? Yuzu are now available! However, be aware that the Yuzu season can vary from year to year so please be sure to check for availability.

Get 5 pounds of Centennialquats with FedEx Shipping included in the price!

Centennialquats are very similar to the Mandarinquats in size and shape. However, Centennialquats tend to have variegated colors on the rind, which is less pronounced the deeper the orange color becomes. Also, the flavor is more tart than that of the Mandarinquat, but still has that “mandarin-like” taste. So, if you like the juicy-tart citrus taste in a small little flavor packed kumquat size piece of fruit, then you will really enjoy Centennialquats. Like kumquats, Centennialquats are usually eaten whole, peel and all, however they do have small seeds. Best part of Centennialquats are how versatile they are. Think of all the great ways you can use them in your kitchen…you can eat them as is as a healthful snack, or sliced up in salads for that added “zing” of flavor. Of course they are awesome when used in preserves or purees. The juice can be used in marinades or cocktails, and even made into syrup. And think of how flavorful a vinaigrette salad dressing would be with that tangy citrus flavor. Yum-O! Centennialquats will keep up to two weeks when refrigerated.

 Mandarins are mainly seedless and sweet and a part of the “easy peeler” family of citrus. Mandarins are distinguished by their “puffy” and loose outer peel that makes them a breeze for anyone to peel. Top that off with their delightful fragrance and sweet, delicious, juicy citrus flavor, and you have quite a popular and wonderful healthful snack for everyone! Both low in acid and high in sugar makes them ideal for use in the kitchen too. Try making your own Mandarin marmalade or jelly for your morning toast or how about peeling and sectioning one up and tossing them into a salad with a nice balsamic or rice wine vinegar for a dramatic “balance” of sweet and sour flavor. No matter how you use this delicious citrus, these little cuties are sure to please!

Moro Blood Oranges NOW available!

Moro Blood Oranges… The “Blood” orange is one of the most colorful varieties in the world of Specialty Citrus products. They are the earliest ripening and darkest of the blood oranges. The fruit is generally smaller than an average orange. The outer rind of the blood orange is usually somewhat pitted in texture. Bloods are also one of the most “under used” pieces of fruit in the world of citrus. Try using blood oranges in a “Sangria” drink. Use both some of the juice from the bloods and cut them into thin slices (along with slices of lime) to “float” along the top of the Sangria bowl as a colorful and spectacular garnish. You could also replace regular orange juice for Blood Orange juice in an orange cake recipe and use slices of the blood orange to decorate the top, for a bold and exciting twist!

The blood orange is often (and incorrectly) described as a hybrid between a pomelo and a tangerine or other citrus, but it is merely just a genetic mutation of a sweet orange. The distinctive dark flesh color of blood oranges are due to the presence of the pigment anthocyanin, this pigment is common to many fruit and flower varieties, but uncommon in citrus, however obviously not to blood oranges.

Sanguinelli Blood Oranges from Pearson Ranch! Although some people believe that most blood oranges are from Italian origins, however, the Sanguinelli also called a “Sanguinello” was first discovered in SPAIN back in 1929… “Mama Mia”! This late ripening blood orange has more of an oval shape than do Moro Bloods, but have an equally delicious “citrusy” flavor with berrylike overtones.

So what to do with Sanguinelli Blood Oranges? Here’s where your use of them is only limited by your culinary imagination. Try them in your new favorite marmalade recipe and add a real splash of color, or how about in a vinaigrette to get your guests or family talking…and don’t forget desert, blood orange cake topped with blood orange segments, yum-o! So now that you know where to get them, why not order a box, and let’s get cooking.

Did you know…?

The dark red color of the juice they produce has something in common with a totally different fruit that you wouldn’t be quick to guess. If the juice color looks familiar to that of a pomegranate, it’s because they both have the same compound anthocyanin which gives them that dramatic red color.

The blood orange is often (and incorrectly) described as a hybrid between a pomelo and a tangerine or other citrus, but it is merely just a genetic mutation of a sweet orange.
