Orange Peel Cut
Citrus peels contain loads of essential oils that add an unmistakably sharp tartness to foods. Fresh citrus zest is always preferable to dried peel, but when it isn’t available, dried peel can be rehydrated in a bit of warm water for an acceptable substitute. We sell lemon, lime and orange peel granules, as well as larger lemon and orange peel pieces that are great added to tea or mulled wine and cider. Lemon peel is used widely in Moroccan foods like tagines. Lime zest is used in the Middle East and Southeast Asia for stews and curries. In China, they prefer orange for stir fries and duck dishes. All three are great in baking (muffins, cookies, cakes) and each has its place in the kitchen.
The peel of sweet orange is used to increase appetite; reduce phlegm; and treat coughs, colds, intestinal gas (flatulence), acid indigestion (dyspepsia), and cancerous breast sores. It is also used as a tonic.
Sweet orange juice is used for treating kidney stones (nephrolithiasis) and high cholesterol; and preventing high blood pressure and stroke, as well as prostate cancer.
Sweet orange contains large amounts of vitamin C. Some researchers believe sweet orange might help asthma because of the antioxidant activity of vitamin C.
Sweet orange also contains large amounts of potassium. There is evidence that potassium may help prevent high blood pressure and stroke.
Sweet orange fruit and sweet orange juice are used to prevent kidney stones because they contain large amounts of a chemical called citrate. Citrate tends to bind with calcium before it can form kidney stones.
