Rising C Ranches: Specialty Citrus
I got treats in the mail today!
Last month’s Food and Wine had a great article on specialty citrus fruits from Rising C Ranches, a small farm in Reedley, California. They feature a wide variety of unusual citrus fruits like Buddha’s Hand and Etrog Citrons. Intrigued by these new fruits, I logged on to their website and ordered their farmer’s choice… a box stuffed full of their peak produce. So, imagine my delight when the UPS man showed up at my door with a big box.
Here’s what I found inside:
- Moro Blood Oranges
- Meyer Lemons
- W. Murcotts
- Melogold Pummelo
- Chandler Grapefruit
- Minneolas
- Gold Nuggest
- Heirloom Navels
- Cara Cara Navels
Yum! They all look beautiful. I had better get eating!
Anyone have a favorite Meyer Lemon recipe I should try?

Pretty colors – and these I get to partake in – woohoo!
AH lucky you! I look forward to hearing what you think about the different flavours. I have no Meyer Lemon recipe, but I have seen this one:

That has to be the best way to shop for produce.
