Satkara orange (Citrus macroptera), also known as Shatkora, is a distinctive citrus fruit native to South and Southeast Asia, particularly Bangladesh and northeastern India. Recognized for its thick, bumpy green to yellow rind and intensely aromatic profile, this fruit stands out for its strong citrusy fragrance and bold, tangy flavor. Unlike sweet oranges, Satkara has a more complex taste with a slightly bitter edge, making it a prized ingredient in regional cooking rather than for fresh eating. Its pulp is juicy but often tart, while the thick peel holds essential oils that contribute to its signature aroma.

In the kitchen, Satkara orange is widely used to enhance savory dishes, particularly in Sylheti cuisine, where it adds depth to curries, meat dishes, and pickles. The peel, rather than the flesh, is often the highlight, infusing broths, chutneys, and stews with a rich citrusy essence. It is also valued in marinades, lending its bright and slightly bitter notes to grilled and slow-cooked meats. Whether used fresh, dried, or preserved, Satkara brings a unique burst of citrus complexity that elevates both traditional and contemporary dishes.
