Orange Blossom Essence
A visiting relative looked in vain for orange blossom essence in local shops. Any suggestion?

I'd think this is orange flower water, sold in any Turkish/Greek/Middle Eastern shop next to the rose water. Essences are usually highly concentrated in tiny bottles, like flavourings, sold in bakery sections in supermarkets etc. Never heard of orange flower produced this way, only more conventional orange flavour.
Anyway, orange flower water can be deceptively strong, a teaspoonful going a long way.

Easy to find in French supermarkets in the baking section, maybe try M&S or Waitrose or Finsbury park area, Blackstock road north African shops ( Eau de fleur d'oranger)

Many thanks vaneska and Nicole. I'll pass your advice to my Belgian cousin on his next visit.

I recently bought a small bottle of Valencian Orange Extract from Morrisons.
