Oranges are a sweet citrus treat, but there are a few tricks to picking and storing them right. Here are some tips to make sure you're always biting into the best, juiciest orange.

1. Go for Heavier Ones

When choosing oranges, pick the  heavier ones. That extra weight means more juice! Lighter ones can be a little dry & lack the punch you're after.

2. Don't Judge by Colour

The peel colour isn't a foolproof way to judge sweetness. Whether the peel is bright orange or has a hint of green, it can still be perfectly juicy.

3. Watch Out for Thick Peels

Look closely at the peel. Thick, bumpy peels with stains or small holes might mean they're past their prime. Go for ones with smooth, skin.

4. Room Temperature

Keep your oranges at room temperature in a cool, dark place. Just make sure they're away from sunlight, which can zap their freshness.

5. Use Net Bags

Choose dishes that can be cooked quickly. Opt for recipes that are simple and require fewer techniques and save time in the kitchen.

6. Wrap It Up

If you only eat half an orange, cover the other half with cling wrap before putting it back in the fridge. This keeps it from drying out and losing flavour.
