About Tangerines, (mandarin oranges), canned, light syrup pack
The mandarin orange (Citrus reticulata) is a small, sweet citrus fruit with a loose, easy-to-peel skin and segments that pull apart effortlessly, making it a favorite lunchbox snack and holiday treat. The group includes the seedless clementine, the slightly tart tangerine, the honey-sweet satsuma, and hybrids like the tangelo, all sweeter and less acidic than a standard orange. Mandarins are an excellent source of vitamin C and provide fiber, folate, and antioxidants for very few calories.
They are eaten fresh out of hand, tucked into green salads and desserts, juiced, and canned in light syrup, and the fragrant zest and dried peel flavor baked goods, marmalades, and Chinese cooking. In season through the winter months, they are traditionally given as symbols of good luck around the Lunar New Year. Choose fruit that feels heavy for its size with glossy, unblemished skin, and store mandarins on the counter for a few days or in the refrigerator to stretch their freshness to a couple of weeks.
