1, we eat the remaining grapefruit peel, first rub the skin with salt, then clean it with water, and dry the water on the peel with kitchen paper towels.
2. Remove some inner fascia with a knife, and then cut it into 0.5 cm strips.
3. Add some water to the pot and bring to a boil. Add a little salt to the water, pour in the grapefruit peel and blanch for two minutes to remove the bitter taste of the peel. Then remove the peel, soak it in clear water for a while, rinse it twice, and then squeeze out the excess water in the peel by hand for later use.
It should be noted that the grapefruit peel should be soaked in clear water for a period of time to fully remove the bitter taste of the peel until the water does not turn yellow, and the water should be changed several times.
4. Add a proper amount of water and sugar into the pot, and the ratio of water and sugar is 2: 1. Bring the fire to a boil and keep stirring with a spoon.
5. When the sugar water is boiled until it is thick and frothy and turns into syrup, we pour in grapefruit peel, turn on a small fire and cook slowly until the water is dry, and turn off the fire. In order to prevent sticking together, keep stirring with chopsticks.
6. Cool the grapefruit skin and eat it as a snack in a small jar.
Finally, I will share with you some tips for choosing grapefruit.
1, ok
When we buy grapefruit, we can weigh it with our hands and choose heavier grapefruit, because heavier grapefruit contains more water, so it is more delicious. For grapefruit of the same size, let's weigh it with our right hand first, then weigh the second one, and choose which one is heavier, but be careful not to compare it with our left and right hands at the same time, which will make us feel inaccurate.
Step 2 touch
Fresh and ripe grapefruit has a light yellow or red peel. Choose grapefruit with smooth skin when picking. If the skin of grapefruit is rough and yellow, it means that grapefruit has been stored for too long, or it does not grow well.
Step 3 launch
Press the grapefruit peel with your hand. If hard, grapefruit skin is thin; if soft, grapefruit skin is thick.
