"Abkhazian method": how to peel an orange correctly

It turns out that most of us are completely wrong to peel oranges. It also follows directly from this that the orange is subsequently also misused for food. In fact, you should get rid of the peel of this fruit in the same way as with tangerines. Of course, there is a "small" problem, which is the large and thick peel of a juicy treat.

How to peel an orange correctly? Most of us are used to not peeling this fruit at all, but simply cutting it into slices with a knife. It's not a bad way, but eating an orange is not very convenient. You always get dirty in the juice. In order for nothing like this to happen, you should peel an orange in the same way as a tangerine is peeled, and then eat it not in rags, but breaking it into separate whole slices.

This is not difficult to do. First of all, do not forget to thoroughly wash the orange. For work, we need an ordinary spoon, a sharp knife and a plate. Using a cutting tool, a deep cut is made around the circumference of the orange. You should try to make sure that it passes through the skin, but (if possible) does not touch the flesh of the fruit.

When the incision is made, we take a tablespoon and try to shove it under the skin so that the latter begins to break away from the fruit flesh. Gradually we plant the spoon deeper and deeper, right up to the handle and move it along the surface of the orange under the skin, helping it to come off. Everything must be done decisively, but carefully so as not to damage the pulp. The operation is performed with both "hemispheres".

The orange is now ready to eat. Breaking it into separate slices will now not be difficult.
