Jul 14, 2005

Any tangy orange — navel, burgundy-fleshed Moro in the winter or a member of the mandarin family — is ideal in this recipe. Serve with whipped cream scented with orange liqueur and sweetened sliced or crushed strawberries.

Chocolate Orange Crêpe Cake

Don't worry if a few crêpes aren't perfectly round; just layer the less attractive ones in the centre of the cake and no one will be the wiser. A bar zester makes perfect, delicate strips of rind and comes in handy when preparing the orange zest topping.

Orange Honey Chiffon Cake

Serve with orange segments and honey-sweetened whipped cream.

Seville Orange Marmalade

Jul 14, 2005

Seville oranges make the finest marmalade and are the only oranges to produce a clear jelly around shreds of refreshingly bitter peel. Since Sevilles are available for such a short time, make this large batch to last throughout the year.

Cocoa Orange Truffles

Dec 10, 2012

These cocoa-dusted truffles hold a velvety orange-scented chocolate ganache. For a kid-friendly version, substitute orange juice for the liqueur. If the chocolate filling gets too soft when you're shaping it into balls, refrigerate it for a few minutes.

Blood oranges (moro oranges) add a colourful touch to a refreshing salad after the main course. You can prepare all but the avocado a few hours ahead and chill separately until ready to assemble.
