Trotted out today to pick the Ambersweet oranges for breakfast. Perhaps it was citrus hubris that got me but the juice made my lips pucker. I wonder if I picked them too early? Sally Morrison says leave them on the trees until the news of an impending hard freeze. Today I have on a sleeveless shirt and shorts, so I guess there is no danger of the hard freeze just yet.
I wonder,have they interbred with the calamondines? Speaking of those lovelies, I have made a wonderful waffle syrup with orange marmalade and a few tablespoons of calamondine juice. It adds MKR's beloved tartness. I am going to make the wild orange pie on page 197 of Morrison's book. The idea of low fat cottage cheese as opposed to the canned condensed milk I usually use, is appealing.
