How to Make This Easy Winter Fruit Salad

This winter fruit salad is indeed EASY! The most complicated part is segmenting an orange. And we promise it only intimidating. After you do it once, you’ll be ready to show off your segmenting skills to friends!

Or…you can just use a seedless orange! The main purpose of segmenting the orange is to remove the seeds. It does also remove the pith and membranes, ensuring the best texture and maximum sweetness.

HOW to segment an orangeyou ask? The first step is to cut off the peel. It’s easiest to do this after cutting off the top and bottom of the orange so it sits flat (see photo below). Then you can cut off the sides with ease.

Next, you’ll hold the orange in one hand and gently cut inside each membrane (see photo below) to create slices. You’ve now segmented an orange. GO YOU!
