Citrus-walnut salad
Indulge in the zesty flavors of citrus-walnut salad! The perfect blend of tangy citrus fruits and crunchy walnuts creates a mouthwatering culinary experience.
Ingredients:
- 3 blood oranges
- 4 tangerines
- 1/2 cup roughly chopped walnuts
- 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 3/4 teaspoons cracked pink peppercorns
- Kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons country Dijon mustard
- 1 head frisée, torn into bite-size pieces
- 3 endives, halved and thinly sliced
- 1/2 small head radicchio, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley
Instructions:
- Using a small sharp knife, trim the ends off the blood oranges and 3 tangerines, then remove the peel and white pith. Over a medium bowl, slide the knife along both sides of each membrane to release the segments into the bowl; discard any seeds. Extract the juice from the leftover tangerine into a small bowl to yield about 2 tablespoons.
- Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Mix the walnuts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of pink peppercorns and a pinch of salt on a baking sheet with raised edges. Bake until they turn golden brown, for approximately 10 to 12 minutes. Allow them to cool.
- While the walnuts are baking, prepare the dressing: Combine the vinegar, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon of pink peppercorns and a pinch of salt in the bowl with the tangerine juice. Whisk the ingredients together. Gradually pour in the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil, while whisking to create an emulsion; adjust the seasoning with salt.
- Mix the frisée, endives, radicchio, parsley, blood orange, and tangerine segments in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently; adjust the seasoning with salt. Sprinkle the toasted walnuts and the remaining 1 teaspoon of pink peppercorns on top.
