How to choose fresh and delicious oranges
- You should choose large, round fruits with thin skin, bright yellow color, and plenty of essential oils. These will be the delicious oranges, juicy and sweet.
- Choose oranges that have an even yellow color, with thin, shiny skin that always indicates juicy fruit.
- When selecting, you should choose firm oranges, as soft and spongy types can easily rot.
- For this cake, you should choose American yellow oranges (Navel oranges) that are sweet, juicy, and lightly fragrant to enhance the cake’s flavor.
- Do not move the cookies until they are completely cool.
- After baking, wait for the cookies to cool completely before placing them in a food-grade plastic bag and sealing it tightly or putting them in a tightly covered container. Do not store cookies while they are still hot, as this can create moisture that leads to quick spoilage.
- If the cookies become soft, before using, place them in the microwave on medium heat for about 5-10 minutes to make them crispy again.
