Naranja Agria
Bitter Orange Juice Substitute
Bitter oranges (naranja agria), sometimes called Seville oranges, are used a great deal in Yucatán cooking. The juice is used in the seasoning pastes (recados) of the region, in fresh salsas, and to flavor fish and other meats. This is a substitute for the real thing if Seville oranges are not available
