Ingredients:
- 1 grapefruit
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- Optional toppings: mascarpone, coarse sea salt, chopped pistachios
Directions:
- Cut the grapefruit in half crosswise. Cut a little bit of the peel off the bottom of each half so that they sit upright.
- Using a paring knife or spoon, remove the seeds and gently loosen each grapefruit segment.
- Place the cut side of the grapefruit down on a few paper towels for 5 minutes to remove excess moisture.
- Once dry, turn cut side up and sprinkle each half with 1 tablespoon of sugar. Use a kitchen torch to melt the sugar, until it turns light brown. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt while still hot.
- Allow to cool, then top with a dollop of mascarpone and sprinkle with chopped pistachios, or other toppings as desired.
Note: If you don’t have a kitchen torch, you can broil in the oven or an air fryer for 5 minutes or until the sugar is lightly browned.
