As a Filipino, it always strikes me as odd how people use the Calamansi (Calamondin) in its ripe form. We prefer to pick it when it's green, when its super sour and perfect to use as a marinade or mixed with vinegar&soy/fish sauce as an all around dipping sauce. Imagine my shock when I found out people made cakes out of it. Lol

People often braise it to serve it up as a savory dish, but it requires lots of effort ;) We also love using the dried skin of mandarin as a herb. It's called 陳皮 in Chinese which literally translates to "aged skin". The longer the skin has been dried, the more aromatic it is and they can sell for a fortune!

When she was talking about navel orange developing an immature fruit on one on it's underside, I didn't know that and it makes so much sense. Sometimes it you can see a more defined deviation when you peel the orange, like there's a separated segment that 'crowns' the other segments of the orange.

@semekiizuio 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah I call them hearts 🤗 I figured it was an inbeed because of the deformity. Up to this point I've always eaten oranges with seeds. So seeing a orange without seeds, it was obvious its been genetically mutated and those tiny hearts were evidence of the missing seeds replacing them.

@broshmosh 2 жыл бұрын

@@semekiizuio Crossbreed, rather than inbreed. I am by no means expert on this, but my understanding is that if you inbreed a fruit you just get... more of the same fruit. If insects pollenate a citrus tree of one variety with pollen from another citrus tree of the same variety (inbreeding), it will produce the same fruit as it did before. Crossbreeding between citrus makes a different variety of sitrus, and if you crossbreed a crossbreed (for example, a seedless mandarin and a seed-bearing orange), there is a chance you will get an orange variety without seeds, or a mandarin variety with seeds. Don't be so afraid of genetically modified produce. It isn't inherently better or worse than non-GM produce. Organic and GM are not opposites of one another - you can get an organically grown version of a variety that was produced with genetic modification, it just means that the conditions under which the organic one grew were controlled in a different way.

The calamondin (or tamarind as an alternative) is used as the sour base for a popular and tasty soup in the Philippines: Sinigang. I cannot emphasize how delicious the soup is, and you can use a variety of food items to make it. Popular additions include bok choy, tomatoes, spinach, seafood (fish, prawns, etc), onion, pork, and more. There are lots of EASY sinigang recipes. Enjoy this healthy soup with a scoop of steamed white rice (or nix the rice if you want to reduce carbs). You can find sinigang packets at many Asian food markets. A lot of DoD commissaries also carry the product as many service men have married filipinas, who then helped make it popular in the military community.

Ah the calamondin, or better known as the calamansi in South East Asia. One thing to note is that they're actually more often found green than orange there, with a yellow flesh. The host absolutely made the right call to make a simple drink with it because that's exactly one of the most ubiquitous and popular drinks you can find at local hawker centres. Highly encourage anyone reading this to give it a try if you ever get a chance. As for the pomelo, it's definitely one of the most enjoyable fruits just to eat like she did, though those imported into North America tend to be of subpar quality. I'm personally extremely curious about those finger limes now.

I don't know what kumquats she had, but the ones we get in our supermarkets in winter are more bitter-sweet that sour. My mom put them in our boots on St. nicholas along with sweets so they are absolutely something that even children would eat. Altough I had a recent experience with my boyfried, who had his first kumquat as an adult because I forced him to try one and he was really weirded out by the flavour: sometime a fruit changes from very sour to very bitter to very sweet while you chew, which is exactly why I love them so much. they are also great as a garnish for gin and gin cocktails.

the dried persian lime is the key ingredient to a popular persian stew called "Ghormeh sabzi." i'm surprised she didn't mention that when she said it can be thrown in a stew because it's literally the ingredient that gives it its distinct flavor

Citron is used quite a bit here in Italy. We make syrup and use it for a fizzy drink called Cedrata, and also use it as ice pop flavoring.

I remember seeing Buddha’s Hand as religious offerings back home but we never eat it, we just offer it to the ancestors and then discard it when it goes bad

We have another kind of citrus here in India called mausambi (sweet lemon) 🍋which looks like a large lemon but is very sweet and delicious Mausambi juice is all the rage here during the scorching summer months

Kumquats are my absolute favourite citrus. The juxtaposition of sour and sweet is so wonderful.

Growing up when I ate oranges they had seeds in them. I never felt like navel oranges tasted "orange" enough. And now I know there was probably some mystery orange I was eating.

Not sure if she got the best examples of kumquats to try there! Like other citrus, they have varying levels of sweetness. I ate some last week that were between 12-14 on the Brix scale-the same as the sweet mandarins she tried. 😊 They’re my favorite citrus, and so good for you because you’re eating the whole fruit! Extra fiber and antioxidants! Give kumquats a try~ 🍊

Props to Chef Cheatham for tasting some of the really sour and bitter citruses, and though I have seen and tried a lot of them before, it is very interesting to see them in their original form and learn about their anatomies.
