Easy to get around the website . Will be betting a small amount to test it out. Will post updates about how everything went! taya77

Unfortunately, I don’t have any tips for buying them- here, you just buy a few segments at a time, either from the grocery store or a trusted street-stand. That way, you can tell at a glance that they’re plump and flavorful.

Yam som-o is a delicious dish of pomelo, fish juice, lime, chili jam, and coconut, and is often served with shrimp. It’s sweet and tart, and a really interesting combination of textures and flavors. I have a very tasty recipe for it, if you’re curious to try it. -X

I take it a good pomelo is anything but dry and bland–how do you pick a good one, what’s it like, and what’s in yam som-o??

Literally minutes ago, my boyfriend and I were wondering whether one can get pomelos in the states- yam som-o (pomelo salad) is one of our favorite Thai foods. This post answered that question- though the fact that it was dry and flavorless isn’t very comforting. -X

I first encountered the juice (organic, volcanic, Italian) bottled in Trader Joe’s, then my education continued in leaps — organic blood oranges from CA at the same store, and then the real thing in Sicily last month. Deep maroon juice when squeezed, a tart taste . . . what they had on Olympus before the feta cheese and spinach omelet. Keep up the good food works!

It smelled so wonderful that I bet the candied peels would be sensational–like grapefruit without bitterness problems?

Emily: Bathing? Please elaborate!

Germi: Supreming really isn’t hard; this was my first try ever. Use a small straight-bladed paring knife (not a bird’s eye) and go slowly. It’s fun.

But I also like having the unusual citrus around as sculpture. I’m thinking of planting a Buddha’s Hand Citron just so I can show off that weirdo fruit!

And by the way, I am so impressed with your culinary technique – I am so afraid to attempt supreming lest I accidentaly slit my throat.
