Pomelo Shrimp Salad

Description

Chef's Note: I’m a huge fan of pomelo fruit, better known to Hawai‘i locals as jabong. Unless you have your own tree or know a friend with one, you can often find them at farmers markets or occasionally at your local market. This salad combines the sweet tart flavor of pomelo with briny shrimp, creamy avocado and sweet papaya. For a really pretty presentation, serve this in a halved papaya.
