Ingredients
Satsuma
- Citrus unshiu is a seedless and easy-peeling citrus species, also known as unshu mikan, cold hardy mandarin, satsuma mandarin, satsuma orange, naartjie, and tangerine
- Satsumas need to be handled with care; their loosely attached skins will bruise easily under slight pressure, which will affect the quality of the flesh
- One of the distinguishing features of the satsuma is the thin, leathery skin dotted with large and prominent oil glands, which is lightly attached around the fruit, enabling it to be peeled very easily in comparison to other citrus fruits

She is even happy to take these into school and peel for herself as they are easy enough for her to do. I realise this should not be so momentous for a 15 year old but after all the trials and tribulations we have battled with then every new food is a win.
Having these now regularly in our food basket is a total victory.

Soft, juicy, seedless and with the right balance of sweetness and tartness – they’re just like the ones we used to get as kids, that are all too rare nowadays.
And of course they’re now out of stock, probably never to be seen again. :o(

The first time, the “sell-by” expiry date was within 4 days. Luckily, after storing them immediately in the refrigerator, I was able to make that order last almost 4 weeks🤞–although they became noticeably less juicy with thinner skins. The second time, 3 bags in all–including replacement for preferred Sweet Clementines Easy-Peelers that sold out by 07:00 (within an hour of release)😒–I received 3 bags of these Satsuma oranges, expected to eat them all within 2 days!😲
Competitors like Sainsbury’s would start reducing these in-store. But it seems, Morrison’s showed no shame in actually increasing the price from a short-lived (2 days) £1.00 clearance price to £1.40. But they were still palming off their rapidly expiring fruit on unsuspecting online customers!😠 Given that these were unrefrigerated in their store/warehouse, I doubt they’ll last as long as the prior order.😟 What a disappointing waste!😞
NB: The packers can only select from what they have or are “ordered” to pack. I don’t fault the packer, rather Morrison’s management for an obvious policy of “dumping” soon-to-expire unsaleable produce through their Amazon channel.😠
