Instructions
- Place the orange on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, slice off a half inch of the top and bottom of the orange.
- Stand the orange up so the flesh is exposed and begin to cut the skin off following the contour of the orange and the white pith.
- Repeat the peeling technique using the exposed contour of the white pith as your guide
- Take note of the membrane in between each segment.
- Using a sharp paring knife, carefully hold the orange in your hand, cut downward between the membrane and the segment. Once you reach the center of the orange, stop and make a second angled cut in a similar way. And the segment should pop right out.
- Repeat working your way around the orange until you remove all the segments.

Notes
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last up to 3 days in the fridge. It is best not to freeze them though due to their high water content.
