Storage & prep

Grapefruits are traditionally eaten for breakfast; the sharp taste may help you wake up! The sourness can be dulled if you sprinkle a small amount of sugar over them. Keep in a cool place in your kitchen or larder until they are at the ripeness you prefer. Less ripe fruit contains more pectin. Grapefruits may start to lose their vitamin C the longer they are stored. Don’t forget to wash your fruit and veg before use.
