I’ve just received a couple cases of clementines which are approaching the end of their life.
I’ve never cooked with them, normally I just peel and eat them. I’m not sure if I’m up to the task of eating all these in the next few days. So if you’ve got some tips on something I could do to make them last longer I’m all ears
MAKE ALCOHOL
If it is gonna ferment, ferment it on your terms
When life gives you oranges, don’t make orange juice. Make life take the oranges back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn oranges, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Bougie_Birdie oranges! Do you know who you are? You’re the man who’s gonna burn a house down! With the oranges! You’re gonna get your engineers to invent a combustible orange that burns a house down!
Look at you, flying through the air like a majestic eagle… piloting a blimp.
Make marmalade. You can jar it to store for later or give it away for christmas presents.
Why wait for Christmas’s?
Hehe.
Candied oranges:
Make a giant screwdriver with the pulp and some juice. Invite the neighborhood to get drunk.
Juice and freeze, like a better frozen minute maid.
Use the hollowed remains and some juice for orange slice jello shots.
Make your own orange Julius / orange dream from Jamba.
Orange sorbet/sherbert
I’d probably candy the peels and squeeze+freeze the juices.
EDIT: jordanlund recommended candying the slices instead. That would also work well. They’re specially great on coca de Sant Joan.
Candied peel, but then I’d do marmalade.

If you are adventurous.
Can personally confirm that this will not taste great lol oranges are notorious
I think it isn’t a problem. https://lemmy.world/post/20855825
When life hands you oranges…
