Orange Peel
Orange peel is the outer skin of the orange fruit, which is known for its bright orange color and aromatic oils. It is composed of two layers: the outer flavedo, which contains essential oils, and the inner albedo, which is white and spongy. Orange peel is often used in cooking and baking for its flavor and fragrance, as well as in beverages like cocktails and teas.
In addition to culinary uses, orange peel has various health benefits. It is rich in vitamins, particularly vitamin C, and contains antioxidants that can help support the immune system. Furthermore, it is sometimes used in traditional medicine and natural remedies for its potential digestive and anti-inflammatory properties.
