January 2009 EatSavvy: Commercial Shoot

Another delicious EatSavvy shoot, with a bit of a (very pleasant!) surprise for me!

I have always wanted to like grapefruit, as I have always heard/read how nutritious it is for you. But I have always found it to be too bitter, and with an over powering taste (especially in a fruit salad). So I was very pleasantly surprised to find how much I enjoyed it in this month’s Red Grapefruit and Avocado Salad, I even went out grocery shopping the next day so I could prepare it at home for myself!

It turns out that the part I don’t like is the pith (membrane) part of the grapefruit. That is the part that is especially bitter/sour. The red grapefuit flesh itself is not bitter at all! So the trick is to cut away the flesh of the grapefruit from the bitter/sour pith, as shown in the following two images:

At the end of the shoot we all enjoyed the Dinner Party main course, Roasted Tomato and Sausage Linguini, it was delicious!
