✨ Hey, friends! You can read more on my blog: www.butteredsideupblog.com/how-to-cut-a-grapefruit/
This video is great! The presenter does a great job outlining each option with the pluses and minuses of each approach! I learned alot and I hold red seal papers in cooking!
The pro method for me! Was taught this in college- I was a home economics major, it was all about the presentation. Pink grapefruit with avocados on a lettuce leaf with red onion and Catalina dressing ( just a drizzle) is delicious! Miss my pink grapefruit tree in AZ.
Thank you! This helped after trying and failing to eat a grapefruit. They are so messy to eat if you don't do it right
Heyyy Ingmar Elfsborg I love ur mom soooo much! Also im the founder of grapefruit! - from queen note
I had grapefruit for the first time today. I had no idea how to eat it, so i tried the conventional method like orange. Turns out the flesh contains bitter residue... I hated it...
Towards the ends I started leaving the membrane & eating just the flesh. Turns out it's a lovely fruit, as long as u know how to eat it
I just bought one today as well. To avoid regrets I decided to watch tutorials on how to eat it.
(edit)
Oh wait, after method 3 I realized I have actually eaten grapefruit before but it's the local variety. The ones we had at my hometown has a yellow green color and never turned orange. However the pulp inside is still the same as this orange colored variety in the video. The third method is how we eat it.
heyyy Sayrabh Jhatri how is it in indian! need deoderant?
Peel is very rich in pectin, you should eat learn to eat at least some of it because of it's health, detoxicating effect it has for us. One of the best sources of it nature has to offer.
Did you ever stop to think for a moment "have I been doing this wrong all my life?" then search online and think "someone probably made a video about it"?
This is it. Thanks.
Happy New Year! I just tried this! The pro method is now my go-to method for eating grapefruit. I already cut other citrus fruits like that but, of course, no membrane. Thanks Erica!
Happy New Year to you, too! Isn't the pro method awesome?! ✨
Thank you! I didn't know there was any way other than the first one! You have changed my life forever!!
So happy it helped you!
I love grapefruit. I usually eat it using method 1 and a grapefruit spoon. Method 5 is my favorite for presentation in salads etc.
Love this video.❤
Thank you, liked the options but think the last method, for me, the best. Quite quick and easy to eventually gobble the fruit, sliced and cleaned!
Very informative for me as I am now worrying how to cut the pomelo that a kind soul gave to me. Thank you very much. Also, I find the body language going along with the instructions eloquently supportive and nice.
Literally my new favorite fruit. I'm 33 and finally learned how to do it right lol! I like the last method. I couldn't believe how easily the meat of the fruit came out! Wow delicious💛
Isn't it delicious?! Yes, once you know the secret it's pretty easy! :)
I'm glad you showed us the pro method. I've never seen it before. Growing up I ate them like your dad ate his. As a teenager I saw a friend do the undress method and I thought she was crazy. It takes a long time and is messy. But it also tastes sweeter so I've eaten them that way since then. I'll now move to the pro method.
Great video! My parents always did it like your dad. I was going to browse to see if there were a few different methods, but you covered several all in one video. Thanks 😊
When living, growing food builds fiber and holds a structure, that's where the more Vitamin C can be found. The white (or "albedo") has nearly all the Vit C in citrus. I cut some white rind and some of the fibrous section walls and add when blending. Or, many times, I'll just eat it. You don't have to swallow the fiber, especially the really tough stuff, you can take it back out of your mouth once you've chewed it up somewhat. Lovely vid. Thx for doing and sharing.
Very helpful; new techniques I never knew about. Thank you!
I remember my grandmother serving grapefruit with your father’s spoon method but I’m making a mixed fruits salad so I’m going for your last approach. Thanks!
I'm ordering a grapefruit spoon after watching your video. Thank you kindly!
I just came back from Paris and the hotel served breakfast buffet. They had grapefruit that tasted AMAZING. It was present in perfect sections so you could just pop nit in your mouth.. These methods are good I think your method where you slice put the fruit while rotating it looks the closest 😋
Thank you for posting. I think I'm gonna try that last method or maybe your sunshine one too. Nice video.
All 5 were wonderful! Thank you. Grapefruit is an amazing delicious fruit! As well as a cholesterol remover.😉
I will be sure to try methods 3 and 5. Thank you for beautifully clear instruction.
I grew up in Florida with an amazing grapefruit tree in the back yard and the Pro method is definitely the way to do it. My dad taught me when I was a kid.
Removing the sections can get juicy, so it's best to do that over a big bowl. You can also put aside your sharp knife and use a butter knife the flip the sections out.
Who asked buddy
@@bbgnotewho shit in ur cheerios?

@@victorialove9104 why are you replying 4 months later 😭
@@victorialove9104 no it’s doesn’t not btw I’m living the dream wbu how’s your day
The last method worked wonderfully. It will take me a bit of practice to get better at it. But in all honestly it wasn't that hard and I have so much more grapefruit flesh then I normally do. Thanks!
Ma'am,
Thank you so much for this video. All my life I have been trying to learn how to eat these fruits, and finally today I decided to learn from an expert, God bless you! So easy!
Thank you...haven't eaten a grapefruit in years.. very helpful!
I am going to try the Pro method! Thank you!🤩
Thank you! indeed helpful content. I was always using undressing method but now am going to try fifth method.
So happy it was helpful! Method 5 is my favorite.
This was great. Thank you. I liked the last one best.
Thank you for the video! Your tips are very useful^^
Best that I have seen!
Thank you! Very helpful!
I use the eat it like an orange method. It is time consuming and messy but there is no wastage or eating the membrane. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely methods 💯
Thank you. #5 worked for me.
This was great!
By the way the “Rising Sun” version you actually do remove more membrane by removing the skin with the knife.
Great information! Thank you!
Nice. I was given a case of grapefruit so I'm going to go practice technique 5.
Now I know how to cut in different ways now!
Yay.
😊❤️
Very well done!
That was awesome thank you so much! my favorite is number five, I'm 54 and I never knew how to do this before except for the first method exclamation mark thank you again I look forward to more videos, I would love to see a tomato cutting one!
Ouse the classic method but did not think of cutting around first😳 thanks!
great vid!
I, see there are a lot of THANK, YOU 😊 WELL, here goes another one !! I am, sure you have made a lot of experiences with grapefruit much more enjoyable !! 😃
Great! Thank you for the tips!
I'm going to try the sunrise method. Thank you
I'm going with method 5. I can put the slices in a ziploc bag and it's ready when I want it. Thanks for the tips!
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful!
Will try all! Super ❤️
Thank you, very helpful. 😊
The "undressing" method is how I actually eat Orange as I find the membrane to be too tough for my preference, so I don't think I will enjoy the "eat it like an orange" method. The last one is the one I came for but being how much of the lovely fruit is left out, I might use it only for guests or when I am about to use the juice in topings as well. But thank you, I finally found the information I was looking for and the explanation. Without your video I would still find it confusing and feeling like I am missing out on other ways and techniques of eating a grapefruit. Thank you so so much 💗 Highly appreciated ❤👏
I started eating grapefruit almost every day the past few months and found I was naturally inclined to do the method where you peel it like an orange, but then with my fingers I tear off the membrane. It’s quite messy, which is the main negative of it, but I do feel like I get every little delicious part of the flesh this way. Might try the pro method (the last one) next time, looks delicious and a good way to make a citrus salad!
Wow, you're a grapefruit expert! 😄
Method 5 , very helpful!!!!
YESSSSSSSSS IM GONNA BE EATING GRAPEFRUIT EVERYDAY TYSM
Great video thanks
Method 1 and 5 are the best by far. Method 1 is the one I have always used the most because I am lazy. I don't like to add sugar or salt to mine though. I really miss yellow grapefruit though since it's so hard to find these days.
I do method 5 and can grapefruit and oranges together, so good!
I have alwaysbdone method #1 ‐ but I want to try the sun method and the pro.method. They look much neater and less wasteful.
Thank you!
also this was great information, I love grapefruit but hate trying to eat them, I feel like I waste 99 percent of the flesh because I just chew up the membrane and spit it out or try to scoop the flesh out with a spoon wich just results in a tiny amount of flesh and mostly juice. this method might seem wasteful but honestly I just went in the kitchen and tried it and it produced far more grapefruit flesh than any other method.plus it is enjoyable to do!
I’ve been using the 5 method may try the 1stmethod
i love the Pro method! great video
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing
Your favorite method works for me as well.
awesome! Will try #5! but the pith and membranes have a ton of good natural fiber, which should not be wasted
It's bitter.
SUPER AMAZING
Thanks. No 5 for deffo💙
My crush will be so impressed when we have grapefruit and I whip out method #5
Mmhmm. You'll look so professional. :D
Excellent, we'll presented video.
Lmao. I just ate a grapefruit and I unskinned them by hand! Was very messy and wanted to look for a better way. I'm glad I found this!
The last method FTW!
Number 5 for me. Thank you.
Thanks. I have trouble eating the grapefruit because it such a pain with the pith & membrane. I will try the rising sun next time.
That method is nice and quick!
Thanks
I will go with both method 1 and method 5
Those are the ones I use a lot! The rising sun method is also really quick and easy.
I'm gonna try the 5th method.
apart from over hearing the words membrane and flesh, this was awesome. thanks for sharing.
Cool. 3&5 I like
Number 5 is great
Very good
I think that it's interesting that there are many ways to cut open grapefruits! ^_^ I love cutting them in half with a knife, and eating the sections of fruit with a spoon, since I always ate grapefruits like that when I was a child! :D
I usually do the "undress" method cause that way I lose the least amount of the fruit. But I will try the pro method too. 👌🏻
It nice that you lose so little of the fruit! But it can get a bit tedious if you're doing a bunch of grapefruit at once. 😅
56 years old, and you've taught me the easy way to cut a grapefruit. Thank you! Great video too!!!
Try dipping Grape fruits into Vinegar with a little bit salt, so yummy or sprinkle with salt on Grape so yummy also..
I'm going to try instruction 5.
Thank you so nice.
Method 5 is my preferred method. Delicious to eat as no membrane
Method 5. I would add that once you get to the seperation part, put a plate under to collect any juice, which would be much harder to collect from the chopping board.
I like the 5th, thx
you always hear about ER visits from cutting avocados...surprised we don't hear about more grapefruit...lol everyone only had the first method growing up bc their mom got the pampered chef funky grapefruit knife :D
Haha! Had to use that expensive grapefruit gadget somehow! They were committed! :P
Love this thank you. One comment tho is you need some plants behind you 😂
I'm not super good at keeping plants alive. :D
Man, i love grapefruit! With my diet (low fodmap to keep my ibs in check!) I can have 80 grams every day, which is about 8 sections of a medium sized grapefruit. For normal days, ill have half a grapefruit with breakfast and I'll eat it your "classic way" and cutting the parts with a grapefruit knife. When I'm taking it on the fo, or have friends coming over for breakfast/lunch, i'll cut it the pro way. I'll try to catch as much juice as possible by cutting the sections over a bowl. Then I'll keep the cut sections in an airtight container with the juices. I sometimes boil the peel as part of a simmer pot (makes the house smell divine!) And use it to make a simple all purpose cleaner! (Look up lemon peel cleaning spray and use grapefruit peel instead of lemon!)
thanks for the info, never had 1 of these before, i bought 1 thinking it was a Pomelo Melon
I eat mine like method 4 been eating grapefruit like that for years my favorite
Using Tajin seasoning on this is delicious
I like them all bravo
So glad you found it helpful!
We're to buy it
The reason I'm watching this is because my mom always used to cut it and then an then have us scoop out the pieces with the spoon with a little sugar on top. But I decided today that I was just gonna eat like an orange and skip the bother of no running a knife along the membrane and all that.. I was Just gonna peel and eat it. Come to find out you're really can't eat one like that and enjoy it. I had the biggest mess in the end. I never knew that's why my mom did what she did. But now I know ..So thank you very much for your vide, you rock?
for the first way, you do not need to get in-between slices, just cut the center like a square then cut around the outside edge. like a donut. they pop out automatically.
Ah, I need to remember to try that!
I’ve also seen people cut grapefruit like a volcano - they remove a cone from the top. What are the pros and cons of that method?
I've never seen that method before!
