Why is grapefruit boiled water bitter?
The taste of grapefruit boiled water itself is slightly bitter, and it needs to be seasoned with appropriate amount of sugar to make it sweet. However, if the boiled water of grapefruit becomes bitter, it may be caused by the following reasons:
1, grapefruit is not ripe: eat less.
Grapefruit will only become sweet when it is ripe. It becomes bitter when you are not familiar with it. Grapefruit like this usually contains more tannic acid, so it can only be eaten in small quantities, otherwise it will stimulate the stomach and cause discomfort.
2, put more pomelo peel: eat less.
Pomelo peel contains bitter biological glycosides. If you put more pomelo peel when cooking pomelo, bitter pomelo peel water will appear. It is suggested to control the amount of boiled grapefruit water. Generally, it is more appropriate to put 4 portions of grapefruit meat and 1 portion of grapefruit peel. At the same time, it is best to drink grapefruit water less in this case, so as not to stimulate the stomach and cause discomfort.
3, grapefruit deterioration: can not eat
Before cooking, grapefruit was frostbitten or left for too long, which led to its deterioration and bitterness. After cooking, this bitter taste will not be eliminated, but the cooked grapefruit is inedible and may cause physical discomfort.
