Expert Tips

Tip 1
This side is great served hot but is equally yummy at room temperature.
Tip 2
For the prettiest shredded orange peel, use a channel knife, which is a favourite of bartenders.
Tip 3
Always read the labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is vegan. Products and ingredient sources can change.
