Tangelo
The tangelo is a citrus fruit originally developed by crossing a grapefruit with a mandarin. It looks similar to a mandarin, although bigger and rounder, with a knob at the top. The tartness from the grapefruit is combined with the flavour, smell and easy-to-peel mandarin. Tangelos have light to deep orange skin.

Look for well-formed fruit that is heavy for its size. Avoid bruised or softened, damp fruit.

Tangelos are ripe when picked and will, like other citrus fruit, go mouldy if stored at room temperature for too long. Refrigerate them in the crisper of your refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
