*To “supreme” citrus fruit, cut top and bottom off fruit to create a flat surface. Cut all the way down to the flesh (past the membrane). With your knife, slice from pole to pole of the fruit, cutting just under the membrane. Slide your knife around each section, between membrane and section. Pop out each section, and you’re done!
