The aromatic red grapefruit has become a staple of Italian fruit stands. This exquisite marmalade, with its clean, bright flavor, fresh citrus aroma and tiny bits of pulp, is one of San Giuliano's best. Swirl it into oatmeal and yogurt or whisk it into a salad dressing. Sweet and tangy, it complements soft, creamy cheeses like goat cheese or sheep's milk ricotta.
Red Grapefruit (Citrus × paradisi) is a subtropical hybrid citrus tree first bred in Barbados and introduced to Sicily in the 1920s. It was bred from the pomelo or shaddock (Citrus maxima) and the sweet orange (Citrus × sinensis) and is known for its highly acidic, tart flavor.
