Description
Satsumas are small, sweet, seedless citrus fruit. They are members of the mandarin orange family, along with clementines, tangerines, and other popular varieties. In fact, they can be hard to distinguish from the others, aside from the fact that, unlike tangerines, satsumas are always seedless.
The fruit features a thin, leathery skin that is relatively easy to peel, compared to other citrus fruits. This makes them a popular on-the-go snack, because they are portable and produce less mess than a traditional orange.
