・ Grapefruit (white)procedure
1. 1. Cut the grapefruit in half.2. Cut off the calyx and buttocks about 5 mm so that they are horizontal to the cross section, and save them.
3. 3. Put a knife between the flesh and the skin and hollow out the flesh. The point is to carefully wrap the knife around so that the flesh is not crushed as much as possible. You will have a ring of skin and a lump of flesh.
Four. Put the calyx (or buttocks) cut off in "2" on the ring-shaped skin. This completes the vessel.
Five. Cut the flesh hollowed out with "3" into easy-to-eat pieces and serve in the bowl of "4".
6. If you have greens such as herbs, add them and transfer to a plate.
The procedure is simple, but it has the disadvantage that the flesh is easily crushed when cutting. If you're new to working with grapefruit, start by cutting a few for yourself and explore the tricks.
For grapefruit, "white" is recommended rather than "ruby". When I made it using "ruby", the pink flesh and juice left inside the "vessel" were conspicuous, and the appearance was not good. It depends on the skill of cutting, but if you are new to it, you can try it with "white" and it will be easier to finish it beautifully.
A method of cutting grapefruit that gives a decent appearance even if it is a little distorted, and makes you want to finish it more beautifully next time. How about using it for breakfast and hospitality on holidays?
