A citrus supreme is a segment of citrus fruit that has been carefully peeled and cut from the rest of the fruit in such a way that it retains its natural shape, but has been trimmed of all pith and connective membranes.

Cutting citrus fruit into supremes exposes the shiny, jewel-like surface of the individual segments for a beautiful presentation that doesn’t include the often bitter or chewy membranes.  They’re a great garnish, particularly for salads and desserts.
