Product description

The Navel Wash takes over from the Navelina when the latter finishes. 🍊 Same light flesh and same seedlessness, but thicker rind and larger fruits, and a season that covers February and March.

It is the Washington Navel, the variety from which almost all navel oranges in the world descend. In our region, it grows in Scordia and is harvested by hand, one fruit at a time.

What it's like

  • Light and very juicy pulp, seedless
  • Sweet and aromatic taste
  • Thick rind, easy to peel
  • Medium to large caliber

How to use it

  • 🍊 In segments: the peel comes off in one go
  • 🥤 Juice: drink immediately, as it tends to become bitter over time
  • 🥗 In salad: with fennel, olives and extra virgin olive oil
  • 🍰 In pastry: tarts, jams, candied fruit

📅 Season: from February 1st to March 30th.

🚚 We harvest to order and ship within 24 hours.

Product storage

Store oranges in a cool, dry, and airy place, away from heat sources and direct light. Keep them in one or two layers, in a wide basket, without stacking them: the weight bruises the fruit underneath, and that's where mold starts. This way, they will last three or four weeks.

In the refrigerator, in the fruit drawer, they last up to two weeks. Take them out an hour before eating them, as they don't taste as good when cold.

Check the basket once a week and immediately remove any bruised fruit, as it will contaminate the others. Wash the fruit before eating it. If you want to use the peel in cooking, first check that the product has not been treated after harvesting.
