orange peel
Marmalade's bitter component
Orange peel is the outer skin of an orange, removed before eating the fruit or zested for its flavorful oils in cooking.
The textured surface gives its name to a skin condition or wall finish with similar dimpled appearance: She hated the orange peel texture on her thighs.
Orange peel also describes a type of paint defect with an uneven, bumpy surface.
