Peeling oranges by hand often gets orange rind and pith stuck under your nails or stains on your fingertips, which can be a real pain if you're peeling a lot of them for a recipe.
Fresh oranges sliced in half
You can avoid all this mess by cutting oranges with this simple 3-cut knife hack. Use a knife to cut a thin slice off the fruit's top, followed by another thin slice off the bottom.
Make a cut from one of the cut ends to the other, piercing the rind without cutting too far into the fruit. Pull the ends apart and extend the orange into a single strip of slices.
Peel off the orange slices one by one as you eat them, or all at once and put them in a bowl. Now, you can add more oranges to your diet without the hassle.
