The FP saves a lot of work preparing the fruit.
I cut the oranges in half, use the FP citrus juicer attachment to
extract the juice, (juicer helpfully collects pips); winkle out any
remaining pips (save them all) then use an FP medium slicing blade to
shred the peels. Takes hours by hand and minutes in the machine. Then
tie the pips in a pice of muslin, and put it in with the cooking fruit.
