Notes
To achieve a truly vibrant and authentic orange flavor, it's crucial to use freshly squeezed orange juice. The natural sweetness and tanginess of freshly squeezed juice will infuse your sauce with a burst of citrus bliss. Opt for juicy and ripe oranges—varieties such as Valencia or Navel work beautifully. By using fresh juice, you'll be able to capture the essence of oranges in every delectable bite.
