How to Peel Grapefruit Slices Quickly and Easily

Grapefruit is a mixture of orange and pomelo. It is rich in vitamins P, C, B2, carotene, calcium, potassium, fiber, organic acids and essential oils, which are important for the body.

Grapefruit is widely used in cooking for desserts, meat and fruit salads. Grapefruit juice, with a characteristic bitterness, perfectly tones. The pulp itself has a very light spicy bitterness.

And the main bitterness in grapefruit is contained in dense white films on the slices. Unlike tangerines or oranges, grapefruit pulp separates very easily from these films, so peeling grapefruit from them will not be difficult.

How to peel a grapefruit step by step instructions with a photo

Step 1

 

For work, we need a grapefruit, a knife, a kitchen board.

Step 2

 

Cut off the top of the grapefruit so as not to snag the flesh.

Step 3

 

With a small sharp knife, make shallow cuts in the peel from top to bottom.

Step 4

 

Hook the peel on top and pull down. The cut peel easily separates from the fruit.

Step 5

 

Hook a white film on top with a knife and pull down, as in the photo. It separates easily.

Step 6

 

Divide the grapefruit into 2 halves and with a knife in each slice cut a white film from the top near the center (where the seed is). Pull down, separating the film from the pulp. On the sides, the film will come off easily, and on the bottom, you will need to make a little effort. Remove the bones too.

Step 7
