With the Winter coming to it's close, I find that the stores don't
have much of a selection in the way of vegetables. This thought
reminded me of an idea which is real easy and helps dress up that
lettuce/tomato/maybe a little shredded carrot, mixture which one
eats as a salad this time of year.
You add a little (maybe 1/2) of a PEALED grapefruit to your salad.
All you have to do to make it easy to peal:
Place the grapefruit on the counter an put the palm of your hand on
it and roll it around, pressing gently as you do. Try to do this to
all surfaces. This makes the skin come off a lot more completely.
Now just separate the sections and run your knife along the edge
where the seeds are. You can peal back the skin and have nice little
chunks for in your salad.
Enjoy...

Asparagus is in season now, though, and only for the next few months so eat lots of it! A very easy way to make asparagus: Break the bottom end off (if it's good asparagus, it should snap nicely about 1/3 from the bottom). Cut on the diagonal into 1" or so pieces (if you like, you can pare off the tough skin if you have thick spears). Throw some butter in a skillet (or margarine if you prefer). Saute about two minutes (don't overcook it, please!). Sprinkle with soy sauce and a little sugar, cook another 15 sec. or so, and serve. (it's yummy if you sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds) Marie desJardins marie@harvard
