How are membranes removed from canned oranges?
Would like to know what process is used to remove membranes of oranges ie:canned mandarin oranges?
Found an article online that says they put them thru a bath in lye solution which dissolves the membrane then wash them thoroughly and add more citric acid (the lye bath neutralizes the natural acid!). Is this true????????

Oooh! Good question! I don't know the answer, but I'm going to watch your question to see if anyone knows how.

you can segment an orange by taking a small paring knife with a peeled orange and cutting between the membrane and the orange slice on both sides which leaves you with a smaller wedge but no white membrane on each side!

they are usually removed by hand (gloved)
I don't think they have invented a machine to do that, yet.
but who knows, we have walked on the moon
