Yes you read it right, I marinated salmon in grapefruit juice and it really is a great way to cook salmon. I figured lemon is often paired with fish so why not grapefruit. I love grapefruit and Jasmine and I share one every morning with a little sugar on it. I also want to mention that I have Fernando De Valle a World famous Opera singer on my radio show tomorrow at 5 pm talking about life as a world class artist and how to prevent diabetes.
The coolest thing for me personally is that his publicist approached me asking if I would like to have him on the show :-), hope you can tune in
