Food Fights: The Biggest Culinary Scandals Of 2011
Our new sister site, Green Daily, has a post up today that I thought might appeal to you Slashfoodies out there in readerland. They have discovered an article on Gomestic about 10 ways to use an orange peel. Back when I was in high school, I had a friend who would carefully save the peel of her orange, and after she had finished the fruit would return to the peel and meticulously scrap out all the white pith and eat it. Someone had once told her that it had lots of Vitamin C and being the health-conscious person that she was took the advice to heart.
I'm not necessarily recommending that you consume your pith (anyone know whether my friend was correct or not?) but some of these other orange peel tips are quite helpful. My favorites are the recommendations to use peels as a safe home fragrance (boil them in little water with a cinnamon stick or two), to use a bit to keep your brown sugar soft (I always have problems with hardened sugar) and put them in with oil to create infusions.
