:Actually the word comes to us from the Portuguese through French and originally had to do with quinces, not oranges. Latin is in there somewhere, and honey has had a look-in in certain references.

I have an indescribably moorish glaze for the Christmas ham if anyone's interested (although you'll have to wait nearly a year to try it, unless you have the good fortune to live where I live and celebrate '''''Ozmas''''' in June.} [[User:AlanE|AlanE]] 00:24, 3 January 2015 (EST)
