They containanthocyanins which gives them their blood red pulp, but also a beneficial antioxidant component. The anthocyanins develop due to a combination of warm days and cool nights. Besides their extra health benefits, blood oranges are typically easier to peel than other types of oranges, have fewer or no seeds, and are generally quite sweet. Their distinct colors make them great in fruit salads, cheese boards (combine them with other orange or mandarin varieties for a nice color presentation), or just eat them raw. Byeonggyul Orange

No, once the oranges are harvested, they can never ripen naturally. They usually only ripen when they are left to mature on the tree.

Biondo Comune Orange The word entered Late Middle English in the 14th century via Old French orenge (in the phrase pomme d'orenge). [23] The French word, in turn, comes from Old Provençal auranja, based on the Arabic word. [24] In several languages, the initial n present in earlier forms of the word dropped off because it may have been mistaken as part of an indefinite article ending in an n sound. In French, for example, une norenge may have been heard as une orenge. This linguistic change is called juncture loss. The color was named after the fruit, [25] and the first recorded use of orange as a color name in English was in 1512. [26] [27] TerminologyGreen doesn’t always indicate ripeness. As we have discussed above, even ripe oranges can turn green or produce patches of green to protect the fruit from sunburn. This happens due to a natural compound called chlorophyll, which the plant produces in excess to create a protective barrier.
