Pomelo, a greenish-yellow citrus giant, is increasingly gaining popularity among our fellow citizens, not inferior in taste to fruits such as orange and grapefruit.
Cleaning it won't take you too long and won't be a hassle. Everything is much simpler than it might seem at first glance, because cutting a pomelo is no more difficult than cutting an orange.
Instructions
Step 1
Like any other fruit, the first step is to wash the pomelo. First, cut off the cap or top of the fruit. Since the pomelo skin is quite thick, you can safely, without fear of damaging the pulp, cut 1, 5-2 cm.
Step 2
Make several vertical cuts, as if dividing the fruit into slices. Alternatively, make a spiral cut from the center of the top of the fruit to the very bottom. The depth of the cut should be about 0.5 cm, depending on the size of the pomelo itself.
Step 3
Now with your hands or, helping yourself with a knife, begin to remove the skin, separating it from the fruit. In the same way, the white layer between the skin and the pulp is easily removed.
Step 4
Having completely cleaned the flesh from the skin, divide it into slices. But this does not end there either. To get rid of the bitter and tart aftertaste, it is necessary to remove the white film from the pomelo slices and remove the layers and veins (as when peeling a grapefruit). The fruit is now completely ready to eat.
