Seville oranges are named for Seville, Spain, where they were first cultivated at the end of the 12th century. They are small, round citrus fruits that average 7 to 8 centimeters in diameter, and have a dark orange, bumpy rind. The rind is covered in deep oil glands that release aromatic volatile oils with bitter and floral notes. These oranges are a good source of vitamin C, dietary fiber, and thiamine. They also contain potassium, phosphorus, vitamin A, and calcium, and offer antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Seville oranges are not meant for fresh eating due to their bitter flavor. However, their juice and rind are used for both sweet and savory applications. Use the juice for syrups, cocktails, vinaigrettes, marinades, or as a finishing touch on fish and white meats. The zest can be used to flavor sugars or salts. Substitute Seville oranges for key limes or lemons in custards, tarts, or pies. The bitter rind is ideal for making candied orange peel, and for traditional marmalade.
