zero waste orange #shorts #zerowaste #asmr

I used just 3 oranges to make 1 jar of candied chocolate peel, 6 orange lollies and enough vitamin C supplements for 2 months. Using every part of your fruit and vegetables it’s only rewarding but it also helps to save money.

CANDIED CHOCOLATE PEEL: 🍊🍫

peels of 3 oranges
•1-1/2 x cups brown sugar
•2 x cups water
•160 x g dark chocolate
•1/2 x cup chopped almonds
•sea salt optional

🥣STEP BY STEP:

-slice the orange peels of the size you prefer in this case I prefer them quite thin so each orange makes 8 parts.
-blanch the peels 2 times (because I use the whole peel keeping the white parts that are a bit bitter it will help to take out the bitterness)
-place the peels on a grid and let them cool and dry.
-in the meantime melt the chocolate on a double boiler and add the chopped almonds .
-coat the peels in the chocolate
-place them on a baking paper and let them cool completely
-store in an airtight container
-they will last around 2 months

ICED LOLLIES: 🍭

3 x oranges juiced
Optional* any fruit (I used strawberries)

STEP BY STEP:

- Squeeze the oranges using a blender or your hands
- Blend one punnet of strawberries (or any fruit you like), I used frozen strawberries but fresh is perfectly fine
- Add your blended fruit to fill up half way your lollies mold
- Top up with the orange juice
- Freeze over night and enjoy

VITAMIN C SUPPLEMENT:

- Blend the leftover pulp of your juiced oranges
- Dehydrate until completely dry or use the oven at low temperature
- Blend the dehydrated pulp or use a mortar to turn it into a fine powder
- Add the powder to your capsules and take 1-2 a day

NOTE:

- 100g of fresh pulp contain 52 mg of vitamin C
- I bought the plant based film capsules online for about 5£ and they last for a really long time
