SEARED GRAPEFRUIT WITH GINGER MAPLE SYRUP
I call these seared ruby red grapefruit rounds "pancakes," not because there is any batter involved, but because I serve them warm, with maple syrup that I spike with fresh ginger juice.

Steps:
- Cut away the ends of each grapefruit. Stand on a flat end, and remove the skin and pith by cutting down the sides of the fruit. Slice each grapefruit horizontally into 4 or 5 thick rounds (depending on the size).
- Cut a square of cheesecloth. Wrap the ginger in the cheesecloth and squeeze over a bowl to extract juice. (If you don't have cheesecloth, use a clean kitchen towel.) Measure out 1/2 teaspoon juice and mix with the maple syrup. Add more ginger juice if desired. If desired, heat the syrup at 50 percent power in a microwave for 25 to 30 seconds.
- Heat butter over medium-high heat in a large nonstick skillet or on a griddle until foam subsides and butter begins to color. Sear the grapefruit slices for no more than 20 seconds on each side and remove to a platter or plates. Drizzle on ginger maple syrup, garnish with pomegranate seeds if you'd like, and serve at once, while the grapefruit is still warm.

[email protected]I love grapefruit, so I was excited to try this recipe. It didn't disappoint! The grapefruit was perfectly caramelized and the ginger-maple syrup was a perfect complement. I will definitely be making this again.

[email protected]This was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I could fix that by using less maple syrup next time. The grapefruit was delicious though!

[email protected]This was okay. The grapefruit was a bit dry, but the ginger-maple syrup was tasty. I think I would have liked it more if the grapefruit had been juicier.

[email protected]Not a fan. The grapefruit was too sour and the ginger-maple syrup was too sweet. I think this dish would be better with a less tart grapefruit and a more subtle syrup.

[email protected]This was a fun and easy recipe to make. The grapefruit was a bit too tart for my taste, but the ginger-maple syrup helped to balance it out. I might try using a sweeter grapefruit next time.

[email protected]This dish was a delightful surprise! The combination of the charred grapefruit, ginger, and maple syrup was unexpected but harmonious. The grapefruit retained its tartness while gaining a smoky sweetness from the searing, and the ginger and maple syr
