Pomelo Fresh, Each

Fresh Pomelo Fruit is a whole fresh pomelo – the largest of all citrus fruits and the ancestor of the grapefruit, with a thick rind, segments that separate cleanly and a mild, sweet citrus flavour. The pomelo has a gentler, less bitter character than grapefruit. As a result, it suits those who find grapefruit too assertive. Furthermore, the pomelo is a staple of South-East Asian cooking, appearing in Thai salads and Vietnamese dishes. In particular, pomelo segments hold together beautifully when dressed, making them outstanding in salads where other citrus segments would fall apart.

About Fresh Pomelo Fruit

We source our fruit from specialist growers and importers across Britain, Europe and beyond. In particular, we select every variety for its flavour, ripeness and provenance. As a result, the fruit we deliver meets a standard well above what most supermarkets carry. Furthermore, we prioritise varieties with genuine character over commodity produce bred purely for shelf life and appearance. These varieties exist because growers selected them for taste, not yield or resilience in transit. However, they require more careful handling and a shorter supply chain. In particular, the finest fruit is always seasonal – it arrives at its peak and disappears just as quickly. Additionally, we work only with suppliers who understand this. A short supply chain from orchard or grove to your door makes all the difference. That is why Fresh Pomelo Fruit from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Fresh Pomelo Fruit From Us

Cooking and eating with genuinely fine fruit transforms everyday preparations. In contrast to commodity fruit, these varieties carry flavour, aroma and character that rewards both simple eating and careful cooking. As a result, the best preparation is often the simplest. Furthermore, quality fruit always speaks for itself. We deliver direct from our suppliers so you receive fruit at its prime. However, even the finest fruit needs a little attention. In particular, most fruit is best stored at room temperature until ripe, then refrigerated only once it reaches the right stage. Moreover, cold storage suppresses both aroma and flavour. Additionally, the variety and provenance of what you buy matters. That is why we choose these fruits so carefully.

How to Use Fresh Pomelo Fruit

To get the very best from Fresh Pomelo Fruit:

• Peel the thick rind, separate the segments and peel away the tough membrane – the segments come apart cleanly.
• Combine segments with prawns, roasted coconut, chilli, lime and fish sauce for a classic Thai pomelo salad.
• Furthermore, fresh pomelo segments make a beautiful winter salad with fennel, watercress and a shallot dressing.
• Additionally, eat fresh – pomelo segments are refreshing and mild, perfect as a simple breakfast citrus fruit.

Perfect Pairings

Fresh Pomelo Fruit pairs beautifully with:

• Prawns, crab or white fish in a Thai or Vietnamese salad
• Chilli, lime, fish sauce and toasted coconut in a South-East Asian preparation
• A glass of Riesling, Gewurztraminer or a cold Thai lager alongside
• Fennel, watercress or bitter leaves in a winter citrus salad

Storage: Store at room temperature until fully ripe. Once ripe, use immediately or refrigerate for one to two days. Furthermore, tropical fruit is best enjoyed at room temperature rather than straight from the fridge. However, some varieties, such as mangosteen and rambutan, are best used within a day or two of delivery for peak quality. Delivered at the right stage and ready to enjoy.

However you enjoy it, Fresh Pomelo Fruit brings a depth of flavour and quality that commodity produce simply cannot match. Moreover, the finest seasonal fruit is one of the great pleasures of the table.
