Ingredients
- 1 grapefruit
Instructions
- Place the grapefruit on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, slice off a half inch of the top and bottom of the orange.
- Stand the grapefruit up so the flesh is exposed and begin to cut the skin off following the contour of the grapefruit 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 grapefruit in your hand, cut downward between the membrane and the segment. Once you reach the center of the grapefruit, stop and make a second angled cut in a similar way. And the segment should pop right out.
- Repeat working your way around the grapefruit until you remove all the segments.
Notes
- Storage: Store cut grapefruit in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days.
- Freezing: Cut grapefruit will keep well frozen for 6 months. It can be thawed before enjoying or use frozen in smoothies.
