Have you ever had a Satsuma mandarin? They are like citrus candy. Clementines may be the most famous and most well-known of the mandarins but there are several others: Murcott mandarins, Satsumas, Fall Glow tangerines… there’s many. They get their name from where they originated–the first mandarins were actually discovered in China, and they got their name because the orange skin of the mandarins resembled the coats that the courtesans wore in ancient China. Typically much easier to peel, in fact they’re often referred to as “Zipper Oranges”. Mandarins are smaller than regular oranges.
