Questions about Orange juice
How do you stop orange juice tasting bitter when you squeeze it?
Press the fruit gently rather than crushing the white pith beneath the peel, which can make the juice bitter. Strain it if you want a smoother drink.
Can you cook with orange juice?
Yes. Simmer it with a little zest until reduced to make a bright glaze for carrots or roast duck; add it near the end of cooking so the flavour stays fresh.
How should you store orange juice after opening?
Keep it in a sealed container in the fridge, rather than in the door where the temperature fluctuates. Follow the pack’s guidance on how long to use it after opening.
What goes well with orange juice in a smoothie?
Blend it with banana and berries for a simple smoothie, or add yoghurt and oats for a thicker one. Its acidity also pairs well with ginger.
Can you use orange juice instead of lemon juice?
Use it in dressings, marinades or baking when you want a milder, sweeter citrus flavour. It is less sharp than lemon juice, so it may not give the same tang.
Is orange juice a source of vitamin C?
Yes. Orange juice is a source of vitamin C, with 44.2 mg per 100 g.
Is orange juice the same as orange juice concentrate?
No. Concentrate has had much of its water removed; it is usually mixed with water again before drinking. Orange juice is ready to drink, though it may also be made from concentrate.
