It must also be lovely to be able to go out and pick oranges right outside (my jealousy is clearly kicking in again). We weren't wowed by this recipe, but a number of others loved it.Teresahttp://onewetfoot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815369823036697.post-53646294544674928262013-02-14T16:16:00.093-08:002013-02-14T16:16:00.093-08:00I am totally now craving big crusty bread toasted ...I am totally now craving big crusty bread toasted with orange marmalade. Yes, I know you only used the clementines (and not marmalade) in your dish but it is winter and the thought of tea, toast and marmalade brings back many great memories. Back when I was too young to know (or care) what a carb was :) Love the idea of the fresh fruit- that is hardly an option with the blizzards we have been dodging. Keep going rogue- that is how brilliant ideas are born.....tricia s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06247980519576579740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815369823036697.post-81993289814597772422013-02-13T07:33:24.297-08:002013-02-13T07:33:24.297-08:00Even with a 'normal orange' I reduced the ...Even with a 'normal orange' I reduced the zest and you still fight the 'bitter'.

I do not need more confusion in my Life and I like reading your Blog. I have orange marmalade (from England or Spain) every morning with my toast but if I lived near you, I would snitch some of yours, for sure. I think you'd have done better by using marmalade as a marinade for your pork. I wanted to love everything about this recipe and I ate every bite but.....in the end, I like my tenderloin whole, rolled in salt, pepper, and Herbes de Provence, pan seared and roasted. With a big old meat thermometer nearby. Nothing unique about it, but delicious and always with a pink center. You're not the Lone Ranger about "going rogue". I'm not particularly good at it either.Mary Hirschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14495234299898574943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815369823036697.post-81920635443657215762013-02-09T14:31:37.267-08:002013-02-09T14:31:37.267-08:00I used little Cuties and had a little bit of bitte...I used little Cuties and had a little bit of bitterness in mine as well - that's what I get for substituting I guess!Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01421134043676404865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815369823036697.post-74723102288340918692013-02-09T08:46:42.421-08:002013-02-09T08:46:42.421-08:00I didn't think this was all that great.

Without all the sugar used in marmalade, that method yielded very bitter results.

Sorry your choice of citrus didn't work, but personally, I thought the sauce lacked flavor, so maybe it wasn't the fruit you used. I see you're "immersed" in Nigella's Kitchen. Have you tried the Rapid Roastini? I like that recipe.Betsyhttp://aplatefulofhappiness.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815369823036697.post-6013078939759948162013-02-08T16:48:04.325-08:002013-02-08T16:48:04.325-08:00Agh ... isn't it always a bummer when you put ...Agh ... isn't it always a bummer when you put in an effort expecting a nice meal and it just doesn't taste good? I didn't realize that the peels of mandarins are that much more bitter than regular oranges. Perhaps if you had added some sugar or honey, it would've offset it a little?

I only use the juice and the thinnest shavings of zest I can get.
