Instructions
Slice top and bottom off the pomelo where the pith meets the flesh. The stem end will be thicker than the bottom of the pomelo.
Use a sharp knife to score four cuts in the peel from the top to bottom at equal distances around the pomelo. Do not cut into the flesh, cut the peel only.
Peel off the skin.
Follow the natural segments of the pomelo to pry it in half.
Remove the papery wall membranes from each segment carefully to keep segments as whole as possible.
If needed, use a paring knife to remove the tough part of the pith.
Eat and enjoy.
To store leftovers, wrap in plastic wrap and store in fridge for 2 to 3 days.
