Thank you to 100 people for making this recipe a topic of conversation! Citrus fruits like oranges look cute with a smile cut (o^^o)♪ I find it a great stress reliever—haha.The origin of this recipeI learned this method while working at my previous job.

Everyone cuts lemons into 8 wedges lengthwise, but if you do it that way there's a high chance that the cut side of the wedges will be the sac wall...which means that when you squeeze the wedge, the juice goes flying everywhere. So I came up with this cutting method. I wanted to teach this method to my children, so I wrote it down here.Lemons cut into 8 lengthwise wedges are fine, but since it takes the same amount of effort anyway, I like to go with this method, which results in nice cut sides. The walls of the lemon sacs won't be on the cut sides of the wedges, so the wedges are easy to juice and look beautiful too. Recipe by kebeibiko

It’s high in fiber, helps regulate blood sugar, and is packed with vitamin C, iron, and calcium. it’s super beneficial for your body! If the dragon fruit is bright and even in color, feels slightly soft like an avocado, and has drying spines, it’s most likely ripe and ready to eat. Enjoy!

I tried several times to recreate the cut mangoes we had some time ago at a Thai restaurant.I discovered this method of figuring out the shape and direction of the pit from experience.Turn the mango round and round to ascertain where the edge of the pit is. If the mango is not ripe the fruit will not come away from the skin easily, so be sure to use a ripe one. The mango in the photos is the red-skinned Kent variety. Other varieties may not turn red, but as long as they are soft they are ripe. Recipe by Sawaokayoshimi
