How to choose citrus fruits ?

Dec 11th, 2007 by Susan

Look for oranges and other citrus fruits that are full and heavy for their size (the heavier, the juicier). They should have a rather smooth, shiny skin for their particular variety. Very rough skin means a thick skin and less flesh. Color is not a sure sign of quality. Some oranges will turn greenish late in the season (called “regreening”) when they are fully mature and ripe.
