{"id":177,"count":2,"description":"Organic <strong>tangerines<\/strong> and <strong>clementines<\/strong> are citrus fruits of the winter and fall season that are highly appreciated but often confused.\nActually their <strong>characteristics<\/strong> are <strong>different<\/strong>, both in taste and appearance.\nWe handle two varieties that are very characteristic of Sicily: the <strong>seedless  clementines<\/strong> and the <strong>late mandarins Ciaculli<\/strong>.\nBoth are grown by controlled and certified organic farming.\nBut let's see <strong>what are the differences between clementines and tangerines<\/strong>.\nOrganic Clementines\n<strong>Organic clementines<\/strong> are one of the most popular citrus fruits because of their genuine fragrance and taste.\nThe clementine comes from the<strong>hybridization of the mandarin and orange plant<\/strong>, which also varies according to the type of mandarin and orange trees.\nWhat results is a citrus fruit with specific peculiarities.\nClementines, compared to tangerines, are larger and <strong>rounder<\/strong> in <strong>shape<\/strong> <strong>, the color is deep orange, and the skin is thin<\/strong>.\nThe cloves split easily and have a reduced presence of <strong>seeds<\/strong> but sometimes, depending on the variety, are <strong>seedless<\/strong>.\n<strong>The taste<\/strong>, with hints of orange, <strong>is sweet and pleasant<\/strong>.\nThey are typical citrus fruits of the fall and winter period, rich in important nutritional properties, such as the<strong>high content of vitamin C<\/strong>, our faithful ally in the winter period.\nOrganic Mandarins\n<strong>Organic mandarins<\/strong>, are also popular citrus fruits although they are sometimes \"marginalized\" from consumption because of the presence, in the pulp, of seeds.\nThe <strong>shape<\/strong> is <strong>flatter<\/strong> and smaller than that of clementines, and the <strong>color is paler<\/strong> and tending to yellow.\nThe <strong>peel is more aromatic<\/strong>, which is why it is often used for culinary preparations ranging from appetizers to liqueurs.\nThe <strong>flesh is more citrusy<\/strong>, sometimes sour, and is characterized by the <strong>presence of seeds<\/strong>.\nTangerines also have <strong>important nutritional properties<\/strong>.\nThey have a high <strong>content of vitamin C<\/strong>, vitamin <strong>P<\/strong> that helps fight water retention, and, in addition, <strong>beta-carotene, fiber, and vitamins B1 and B2<\/strong> are present.\nTangerines are, therefore, also an ally to our well-being.\n\n<strong>Two typical Sicilian citrus fruits in the seedless and Ciaculli varieties<\/strong> that satisfy both lovers of sweet citrus taste and those of stronger citrus flavor.","link":"https:\/\/www.anemosbio.eu\/en\/organic-citrus\/organic-clementines-and-mandarins\/","name":"Organic Clementines and Mandarins","slug":"organic-clementines-and-mandarins","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":164,"meta":[],"menu_order":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.anemosbio.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/177","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.anemosbio.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.anemosbio.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/product_cat"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.anemosbio.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/164"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.anemosbio.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?product_cat=177"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
