SUPREME CITRUS FRUIT: A FANCY WAY OF saying CUTTING UP SLICES OF CITRUS FRUIT

Some terms in cooking sound more difficult then they actually are. To supreme fruits is one of those terms that once intimated me. Now I use citrus supremes in salads, such as a grapefruit and avocado salad,  or  for an addition to a good breakfast.

Items needed:
1. citrus - for this demonstration I used a grapefruit
2. a sharp knife
3. cutting board

 Slice off outside of fruit so that you remove the white pith which is bitter

 Next, take your knife and slice inside the membrane ( thin  membrane separating the pieces of fruit segments from each other) to the center (not through the membrane) -

 you can feel the knife slide against the membrane as you cut. (if it gets hard to cut, you are probably cutting through the membrane) trust me it is easy.

continue slicing in between membranes 

That's it!
