Spongy, light and with an intense tangerine flavor.
We are right in the middle of the citrus season in Paraguay. So many fruits on the floor and on the trees. It seems that we can't consume everything in the short time they are ripe. We use them in everything that comes to mind; jams, cakes, bread, juices, put in the freezer, and even then, the trees are still full.

Lizet, what a wonderful recipe! I mixed everything except the flour according to your directions, then placed the liquid with flour on top in my bread machine and it did the rest of the work. Perfection!

Oh how lucky to have a tangerine tree! I tried to grow one in a pot before but it didn’t survive. It’s too cold where I am. The bread sounds wonderful! Oh btw I just sent you an email re: FF Cohosting Guidelines.
