Would you like to add this to the mission http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8473287 It is a herbal part of a plant! Thanks, Yeung PK

Sounds like a great remedy! They sell tea in American with orange peels. I think it would taste very good in a soup. Thank you, for the good information. :)

We can eat pickled skin. And usually we put a piece of skin for boiling soup (GuangDong area in China, boiled soup usually more than an hour). If you recovered after sick and stomach feel not well, you can put a piece of skin for preparing porridge with rice.

This is also a herbal, would you consider adding it to the local missions called plants for homeopathic remedy's. :) How do you use the skin? Is it boiled as a tea? Or are the orange peels eaten?
