Versatile grapefruit: Goes well with sweet and savory foods

class = “sc-cffd1e67-0 fmXrkB”>

The season lasts through May, but grapefruit is part of the standard offering all year round in most stores. They have a slightly more sour taste than oranges, their flesh is juicier but they are harder to peel. But there are many practical instructions on the Internet. Still, many people prefer to cut the grapefruit in half and remove the pulp with a special spoon.

A very simple recipe is warm grapefruit with honey: brush the grapefruits cut in half with a mixture of warm honey and liqueur and bake in the oven for 15 minutes at 200 degrees. The same works with a cinnamon-sugar mixture or vanilla/cocoa.

The grapefruit diet is popular because the fruit has only 42 calories. Grapefruit (literally: “grapefruit”) grows like grape berries and is probably the product of spontaneous hybridization of oranges and grapefruits in the West Indies around 1750. It has been grown primarily in Florida since the late 19th century. Their grandchildren grew this extremely bitter taste in our shops. In addition to vitamin C and minerals, 100 grams contains around eight grams of natural sugar. There are also red varieties such as flame or slightly colored Marsh Rosé. To this day, grapefruit grows in Florida, but is also grown in Cuba, Mexico, Israel, Cyprus, Turkey and Spain.

Grapefruit is a vitamin bomb and also contains small amounts of sugar. Therefore, it is an ideal snack between meals.

Vitamin C is very important for healthy nutrition and the development of bone material. The vitamin also regulates calcium and phosphorus balance.

Pomelos, related to grapefruits, are much larger, pear-shaped and very juicy. The taste of pomelo is very intense. Unfortunately, peeling and peeling the skin takes a lot of work. The skins of all grapefruits can be made into jam, but they also produce an essential oil that is said to improve your mood. Grapefruit is popular in chia pudding, which is sold as a “superfood.” Mix chia seeds with almond milk (or milk or soy milk), stirring occasionally for 15 minutes to keep the pudding smooth, then place in the refrigerator for two hours. Sweeten the pudding and serve with grapefruit.

Filleted, grilled grapefruit pieces add a sour note to savory dishes like chicken salads or shrimp salads that also go well with sweet and sour sauces. The heavier the fruit, the more juice it contains. When you buy grapefruit, it may be a little softer than other citrus fruits due to its high juice content. Grapefruits like Pamelos can last for several weeks in the refrigerator vegetable drawer. As tropical fruits, they tend to prefer warm rather than very cold.
