Kraft Kitchens Tips

Substitute

Prepare as directed, using JELL-O Orange Flavor Sugar Free Gelatin.

How to Peel and Section Oranges or Grapefruit:

Peel away orange or grapefruit skin. Cut down against either side of membrane "dividers" with paring knife and lift out sections. Do this over a bowl to catch the juice.

How to Section Citrus Fruit

Use a sharp paring knife to section fresh oranges or grapefruit. Cut a 1/2-inch-thick slice off both the top and bottom ends of the fruit. Cut the peel and white pith away from the fruit, using a downward cutting motion following the shape of the fruit. Place the peeled fruit piece on its side, then cut down along the membrane on both sides of each section to remove the fruit.
