Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Wash and dry blood orange, then use a serrated knife to slice off four thin rounds.

- Heat broiler, with rack 6 inches from heat. Halve grapefruits; loosen segments from membranes with a knife, keeping halves intact. Broil until browned in spots on top, 2 to 3 minutes. Top each half with a blood orange slice and dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve immediately.
BROILED GRAPEFRUIT WITH BROWN SUGAR AND FLAKY SALT
A classic at a fancy breakfast or brunch, the best broiled grapefruits have a glossy caramelized topping covering sections of the warm, juicy citrus. This recipe also includes a little cinnamon for a heady fragrance, and a touch of sea salt, which softens the bitterness of the grapefruit peel. It's best served warm from the oven, when the brown sugar is still melted and syrupy. Ruby or pink grapefruits make for the prettiest presentation, but white ones work just as well, and have a livelier, more acidic flavor.

Steps:
- Move the rack 4 inches away from the broiler, and turn it on.
- Halve the grapefruits through their equators. Using a paring knife or a grapefruit knife, cut the sections away from the membranes and pith so they are easy to spoon up. Place grapefruit halves, cut-side up, on a baking sheet. Sprinkle each grapefruit half with 1 tablespoon brown sugar, then drizzle with melted butter and a little honey. Sprinkle cinnamon over the tops if you like.
- Broil grapefruit until the sugar melts and caramelizes, 2 to 5 minutes. (Broilers vary a lot so watch carefully to make sure they don't burn.) Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler.
- In an electric coffee/spice grinder combine sugar, ginger, and vanilla and ground fine.
- Halve each grapefruit crosswise and run knife around each section to loosen membranes. Arrange grapefruits, cut sides up, in a flameproof baking dish or baking pan just large enough to hold them in one layer and sprinkle with sugar mixture. Broil grapefruits about 1 1/2 inches from heat until sugar melts and tops begin to brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Serve grapefruits at room temperature.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, juicy grapefruits for the best flavor.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the grapefruits in half, as a dull knife can make the fruit difficult to cut and can cause the juice to squirt.
- Broil the grapefruits for 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are slightly caramelized and bubbly.
- Serve the grapefruits immediately with a drizzle of port wine sauce.
- For a more decadent dessert, top the grapefruits with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
Broiled grapefruit with port wine is a simple yet elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet, tart, and slightly boozy flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give this recipe a try.
