Use Key limes or Mexican limes if you can find them. They are sweeter than the larger green ones. To section a grapefruit--using a sharp knife, slice off the top and bottom of the grapefruit, then remove the peel and white pith: with the grapefruit standing on its cut bottom, slice down the sides, following the fruit’s contour, completely removing the outside white pith as well as the peel. Hold the grapefruit in your hand and remove the segments by cutting between the fruit and the membrane. Lift out each segment in one piece. Very thinly sliced red onion adds a pleasant optional bite when mixed into the lettuce. Since you are cutting out the hearts, there will be plenty of jicama scraps. Marinate them to add to another salad.
