Orange Blossom Water ~Culinary

Also known as Orange Flower Water

Moroccan Orange Blossom Water is made from the distillation of the flowers of the orange. It originated in the Middle East and was brought to North Africa by the Arab traders.

Orange blossom water has a stronger flavor than rosewater and should be used sparingly so that the other flavors in the dish are not overwhelmed. Add a few drops to a mixed green salad or fruit, or use in lamb, chicken, or rice dishes made with almonds, apricots, figs, pears, or dates. Orange Blossom Water is used to flavor beverages as well.
