What is that white stuff in between the orange peel and the orange?
It's called the "pith" and I hear it's full of fiber and good for you. Some people find it bitter though and some don't like the texture. It doesn't bother me much but at the same time I've been snacking on oranges lately and I wanted to get rid of it. I feel it does distract from the taste of the orange segments. Today I was pulling apart the sections of Cara Cara naval oranges and they taste like lovely little orange candies. Glorious!
