23 Feb How To Segment A Grapefruit + Video
Why Segment a Grapefruit?
What a lot of people don't know is that grapefruit is not sour! Well, naturally it is a bit tart, but it is not supposed to be unenjoyable sour. It is only this way because of the rind -- which should be removed through segmentation. It seemed daunting to me at first, but it was actually incredibly easy and fast! The segmentation process is actually why I wasn't consuming grapefruit for a long while, but now I am hooked on these Texas Red's! I had learned how to do it when I attended Matthew Kenney Culinary, but the chef that had demonstrated it during the class overcomplicated things. What I hope to deliver to you today is an easy and approachable segmentation method that will allow you to enjoy grapefruit more often, especially right now as it is at it's peak!
My Favorite Grapefruit Variety
I have tried both Texas Red is hands down my favorite variety. I actually have a grapefruit tree in my garden but ironically enough, it is the white variety :/ Texas Reds are slightly sweeter than the white because of their growing location (soil and temperature) and are what I recommend!
Seasonality & Availability

Although I could have just reproduced the sauce from the previous recipe, miso was an ingredient I needed to use up in my fridge, and what better way to utilize it. I tweaked the sauce, cooked up some eggplant in it, and ohh myyyy you guys, I can’t wait for you to try it! 
SOUP-er Bowl SUNDAE, get it, get it? 
Healthy neapolitan waffle sundaes that is vegan, gluten-free AND oil-free?! I know I know, you already knew that from the title, but I just had to repeat it to myself. Prior to going vegan or having any sort of exposure to this lifestyle, I would have never that could be done!
Have you ever photographed ice cream? OH MY GOD is what I have to say to that. I plated these Waffle Sundaes and felt like everything was suddenly PANIC mode. I had to do all that I could to beat the melt of the ice cream, luckily I had Chris with me to help to shoot these photos and some for our roundup. I think that we did a good job in the tight time, I am very happy with the photos <3 But most importantly, I was pleased by the outcome of this recipe! I appears indulgent but is made from nothing but healthy ingredients, oil-free, and allll vegan of course. The variation of textures and flavors created such a well rounded dish.
I can't wait to make these again for a Vegan Super Bowl Sunday...or as we called it,
