TEMPLE ORANGES

The Temple orange is a cross between a tangerine and a sweet orange. They are shaped like, but are larger than, tangerines. Their loose fitting skins make them easy to peel and segment, but they have lots of seeds. Temples have a fine, sweet flavor. They are not only excellent when eaten out of hand but render a very sweet, rich orange juice when squeezed. Florida Temples arrive in December and wind up in April.
