Questions about Clementine
How many clementines make a typical snack?
One medium clementine is a handy portion; it weighs about 74 g and provides 35 kcal. Peel it just before eating to keep the segments juicy.
How do you tell when a clementine is ripe?
Choose one that feels heavy for its size, with bright, fragrant skin and no soft, mouldy patches. A little looseness in the peel is normal and does not mean the fruit is past its best.
Can you eat clementine peel?
Yes: wash and dry the fruit first, then finely grate only the coloured zest, avoiding the bitter white pith. Use it in cakes, dressings or marinades; the peel can also be candied.
How should you store clementines?
Keep them in a cool, airy place and eat them within a few days, or refrigerate them to keep them fresh for longer. Remove any mouldy fruit promptly so it does not spoil the others.
What goes well with clementines?
Their sweet-tart segments brighten winter salads with fennel, olives or leaves, and pair well with yoghurt, porridge and dark chocolate. Add them to a salad shortly before serving, as their juice can soften the leaves.
Can you use clementines instead of oranges in a recipe?
Usually: use the same amount of peeled segments, but expect a smaller fruit with a sweeter, less sharp flavour. For juice or zest, you may need more clementines to match the quantity an orange would give.
Are clementines and mandarins the same thing?
A clementine is a type of mandarin, generally small, sweet and easy to peel. Mandarin is the broader name for a group that also includes varieties such as satsumas.
Do clementines have more vitamin C than tangerines?
Yes: clementines provide 48.8 mg per 100 g, compared with 27 mg in tangerines. They are also a source of vitamin C.
