Bright and aromatic, orange peel brings a sunny burst of citrus flavor that enhances tea blends or sweet and savory recipes. Grown in California’s ideal citrus climate, these flavorful oranges produce peels rich in essential oils that add sparkling notes to accent other flavors. Our premium orange peel granules are slowly dehydrated to preserve their vibrant aroma, taste, and nutritional value. Orange peel is wonderfully versatile in recipes and teas. It enhances baked goods such as muffins, quick breads, cookies, and cakes, and adds citrus notes to jams, syrups, spice rubs, sauces, dressings, and marinades. Its lively citrus tang is a traditional accent in Middle Eastern and Moroccan dishes, as well as rice dishes, pilafs, and lentils. In herbal teas, orange peel pairs beautifully with warming chai spices, immune-support blends with elderberry and rose hips, bright citrus teas with hibiscus and lemon grass, or calming herbs like lemon balm and chamomile. Beyond its flavor, orange peel offers nutritious health benefits. It is rich in antioxidant flavonoids, including hesperidin and rutin, along with vitamin C and phenolic antioxidants that help fight free radicals. The inner white pith provides soluble fiber in the form of pectin, long valued for supporting digestive health.
