Uses

This cross between a Pummelo and a white grapefruit is extremely large with yellowish green pebbly skin and pale yellow flesh. Like a Pummelo, this fruit has a thicker rind than regular grapefruit, sweet tart flavor, is almost seedless and is extremely juicy. Melogold is an outstanding hybrid, available for a few short months. This delicious grapefruit can stand on its own or pairs beautifully with other citrus varieties in salads or fruit cocktails.

Selection, Storage & Handling

Avoid fruit that is overly soft; choose fruit that is firm and feels dense for its size. Grapefruit can be kept at room temperature for few days but will keep well for up to 3 weeks in the fruit/vegetable compartment of the home refrigerator.
