1. 5 quick, beautiful, and simple ways to peel pomelo

However, this method requires quite a bit of effort to peel the pomelo.
Method 2: Cutting the pomelo vertically
Use a knife to cut off both ends of the pomelo, then cut a line from the outside to the center of the fruit. Use your hand to peel off the green peel and white pith, revealing the pomelo segments.
Next, cut the pomelo in half and remove the white core in the middle.
Finally, all you need to do is separate the pomelo segments.
The advantage of this method is that you can easily separate the pomelo segments and enjoy them right away. However, since you need to cut deep into both ends of the pomelo, you may lose some flesh in these areas.
Method 3: Cutting the pomelo horizontally
Use a knife to cut off both ends of the pomelo as close to the segments as possible, then continue by cutting a line in the middle to divide the pomelo in half horizontally.
After cutting, take one half of the pomelo, align it with the boundary lines between the segments, use a knife to make a small incision in the rind, then it can be easily separated.

Then, peel off the white pith, separate the halves, and enjoy the pomelo segments.
