- 5 lbs. Naval oranges
- 5 lbs. Ruby Red grapefruit
- 3 large cans mandarin oranges
- 1 C. sugar
- Salt to taste
Over a large bowl, peel and segment oranges and grapefruit, removing all pith and membranes. (This process takes a long time!) Prepare fruit over the bowl so you can catch all the juice - that's what makes it good. Add canned oranges and their juice. Add sugar and salt to taste. (You will probably need a lot more salt than you think.) Mix well.
Place in a large plastic container with a lid. Refrigerate at least overnight, longer if possible.
This is such a yummy family tradition. Because it takes so long to make, we only have it on Christmas morning along with our Christmas Breakfast Casserole. But it's well worth the effort!
