Orange peel uses icon

What is organic orange peel used for?

Dried orange peel is incredibly versatile. It's most commonly used as a zesty ingredient in herbal tea blends, but it's also perfect for mulling spices for wine or cider, flavouring baked goods, creating potpourri mixes, and as a botanical for infusing spirits like gin.

Tea bag cut icon

What does TBC stand for?

TBC stands for 'Tea Bag Cut'. This means the orange peel is chopped into small, uniform pieces (typically 2-4mm) that are ideal for blending with other loose-leaf teas and botanicals, as they won't fall through a standard infuser.

Tea preparation icon

How do you make tea with dried orange peel?

To make a simple orange peel tea, steep 1-2 teaspoons of the peel in a cup of just-boiled water for 5-10 minutes. It's also a fantastic addition to black teas, rooibos, and other herbs like cinnamon, cloves, or ginger to create a custom blend.

Orange peel taste icon

What does dried orange peel taste like?

Unlike fresh zest, dried orange peel has a more concentrated and bitter citrus flavour, with less of the sweet notes. The bitterness comes from the pith (the white part), which makes it a great balancing ingredient in sweet or rich blends.

Herb comparison icon

Is this different from the orange peel I make at home?

Yes, this product is professionally dried and processed to ensure a consistent size (TBC cut) and low moisture content for a long shelf life. It is also certified organic, meaning it comes from oranges grown without synthetic pesticides, which is important when using the peel.

Baking icon

Can I use this in baking?

Absolutely. You can add it directly to recipes for scones, cakes, and biscuits for a rustic texture and citrus flavour. For a smoother result, you can rehydrate the pieces in a little warm water or liqueur before adding them to your batter or dough.
