The Pummelo

Posted by Hallee on Dec 7, 2010 in Hallee's Galley, Life, Recipes

My newest discovery was a pummelo. Shopping in Whole Foods last week, I saw a large display of them. They caught my eye because they’re huge – easily double the size of a large grapefruit, if not more.

I created this recipe after researching pummelos. I kept finding it paired with avocados in different things, so I put together a quick salsa. I was a bit worried about the cilantro, but the final product was very tasty.

Candied Pummelo Rind

Posted by Hallee on Dec 7, 2010 in Hallee's Galley, Preserving, Recipes, Snacks

While researching pummelos, I came across several referenced to candying the rind. It smelled so wonderful that I thought that I would try my hand at candying it just to try it out. I’m so glad I did. What a delicious,citrusy treat. This would be perfect on top of a cake – I will get started on pairing the perfect cake for these little sugary strips now.

This was SO GOOD. We ate it for days after Thanksgiving, and when the container in the refrigerator was empty, I made another batch! It’s incredibly simple and the perfect accompaniment to any poultry dish.
