bitter orange marmalade
A jam with a bright orange color and a characteristic citrus flavor, enriched with a pronounced but not excessive note of bitterness.
The bitterness of this jam does not come only from the addition of the peel, but also from the use of real bitter oranges, a variety that is rare to find because it is mainly used by the pharmaceutical industry.
It is perfect for true lovers of bitter citrus fruits.
