What Is Orange Peel Powder?

Dried orange peel is the ground form of the product obtained by drying fresh orange peel. Fresh orange peel contains approximately 80% water before drying. Through the drying process, the water content in the fresh product is reduced to very low levels. As a result of drying, approximately 1 kg of dried orange peel powder is obtained from 5 kg of fresh orange peel. During the drying process, the water in the fresh product is removed, leaving the orange essence. Therefore, the nutritional values of dried orange peel powder, especially protein, carbohydrates, minerals, and fiber, are highly concentrated. The sold package is produced using approximately 250 g of fresh orange peel.
