What is a "mandarin"?
A mandarin is a small citrus fruit similar to an orange, known for its sweet flavor and easy-to-peel skin. It originates from China and is believed to have been cultivated for thousands of years in regions such as southern China and Southeast Asia. It typically has a bright orange color and a slightly flattened shape, making it easy to distinguish from other citrus fruits. Mandarins are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, offering both nutritional benefits and a delicious taste. They have a juicy and tender flesh with a sweet and tangy flavor that is less acidic than oranges. Mandarins are commonly enjoyed fresh as a snack or added to salads and desserts. They are also used to make juices, jams, and preserves, and they're a popular choice for making candied or dried fruit.
