COOP Easy Peelers
What it is
These are small, seedless citrus fruits that are known for their thin, easily removable peel. They are a type of mandarin orange, often referred to as mandarins or clementines, depending on the specific variety. Their natural sweetness and convenient nature make them a popular choice for snacking and on-the-go consumption. They are typically bright orange in color and have a juicy, segmented interior.
How people cook with it
Easy Peelers are incredibly versatile in the kitchen and are a favorite for simple enjoyment.
- Snacking straight from the peel
- Adding to fruit salads
- Juicing for a fresh drink
- Zesting for flavor
The primary way to enjoy Easy Peelers is by simply peeling them with your hands. The segments can be eaten individually or combined in various dishes. They can be squeezed for fresh juice, which is a refreshing beverage on its own or can be incorporated into cocktails and mocktails. The zest from the peel can be used to add a bright citrus aroma and flavor to baked goods, marinades, and sauces. Their natural sweetness means they often require no added sugar when used in recipes.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to larger oranges, Easy Peelers have a thinner, more pliable skin that separates with minimal effort. Their segments are typically smaller and more tender, and they are often seedless, making them more convenient for immediate consumption and for children.
Who it is for
Anyone looking for a convenient and naturally sweet fruit snack will appreciate Easy Peelers.
How to keep the rest
To keep the rest of your Easy Peelers fresh, store them in a cool, dry place, such as a fruit bowl on the counter or in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator. Avoid washing them until you are ready to eat them, as excess moisture can encourage spoilage.
