Before selling, Pomelos must be stored at 6 to 8°C and at a relative humidity (RH) of 90%.
We recommend that consumers store pomelos in a cool place, outside the refrigerator. Pomelos stay fresh for several weeks, but they will become less juicy. A sliced pomelo or just the flesh can be stored in cling film in the refrigerator for a few days.
Pomelos are eaten fresh. The flesh can be eaten as is, but is also delicious in salads, desserts, smoothies and juices.
Extra tip for the consumer
Try pomelo for breakfast: delicious with yogurt or cottage cheese.
