The blood orange is a variety of orange with crimson, almost blood-colored flesh.Like most citrus, Blood Oranges are best when tree ripened.With the unique deep red color, it’s not hard to guess where Blood Oranges got their name. This delicious fruit gets it’s signature color from a pigment called anthocyanin, which, while not typical in citrus fruits, is found in everything from red flowers, to cherries, marionberries and other red fruits. Blood Oranges also have a dash of deep red coloration to their peel, giving it the appearance of being soaked in red juice. Currently thought to have been developed from a natural mutation in Sicily in the 20th century, today Blood Oranges are heavily grown in California. These oranges are relatively small compared to the more popular Navel varieties, however, they’re blessed with a thinner skin covering segmented flesh with very few seeds. They are often used for their juice, or as an interesting garnish to various salads, or savory dishes.
