The blood orange season is short, so I am making the best of it. I love that something so delicious is so good for us.

Thank you for visiting my site. I hope you return often.

I bet you could use a dish of this about now, just for some refreshment. Each time I hear anything about the Pope or the Catholic clergy I think of you.

Tarocchi are indeed blood oranges. The Tarocco orrange is one of the three main cultivars, the other being are Moro and Sanguinello. The Tarocco is the sweetest variety with skin and flesh that are not as dark as that of the Moro or Sanguinello. The red color in these citrus is due to the presence of anthocyanins – powerful antioxidants. All blood oranges need cool nights to develop their full complement of anthocyanins, thus their color at harvest is quite dependent on the whims of Mother Nature.

I just love the Sicilian blood oranges. I have been stopping by the fruttivendolo in my neighborhood regularly these days and each time I get 10 Tarocchi oranges. They are so delicious to eat and for making spremuta. Do you know if Tarrochi are the same thing as Blood Oranges? They are not always red inside so I am not sure. Anyway, whatever they are, they are delicious.

Get ready for a wonderful surprise – first when you see the bottle. It is spectacular, and has won awards for design. And then you get a giant hit of orange blossoms when you open it, and the flavor is like Sicilian sunshine. It is smooth and light, not sticky like Gran Marnier because it is sweetened with beet sugar rather than corn syrup. You will be hooked!

Its flavor is pure orange and the scent is heavy with orange blossoms. It is made by William Grant & Sons of the UK, makers of Hendrick’s gin. You may find it in London.

Here’s my article on Solerno.
Thank you for visiting!

It must be very interesting! I should look for it when I go back home. A sorbetto is always welcome…even during the winter and the sweet bloody oranges are perfect for a delicious San Valentine treat.
