Sarasota's Simple Sweet Citrus Salad
Total Time: 11 mins
Preparation Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 1 min
Ingredients
- orange (mix of naval, tangelo, seville, blood oranges, valencia, clementines, any fresh citrus will work)
- grapefruit (ruby red, pink or )
- mint leaf
- powdered sugar
- 1 pinch cinnamon
- orange blossom water (found at any asian markets, whole foods or any health market)
Recipe
- 1 salad -- i can often find my citrus, prepared and segmented right in the grocery store or local citrus markets, stands. but if not, to segment the fruit. cut a small slice off of the top and bottom so it sets flat, then use a small sharp knife and cut off the skin. then run your knife inbetween each segment and remove the fruit. just use a nice sharp knife for this. it is really not difficult.
- 2 serve -- i serve this 2 ways. first, you can serve this family style on a platter by arranging the different colors of the citrus; or you can serve this individually on small plates or in small martini glasses, or small bowls.
- 3 dressing -- drizzle a little of the orange blossom water over the fruit. just a teaspoon or two (it is like drizzling a little vinegar over a salad, just a bit for flavor), then some powdered sugar (just a light dusting, and a pinch of cinnamon. garnish with fresh mint leaves.
- 4 since this is really a no recipe, there are no amounts. so make this for 2, 4, 6, 8 or for a large crowd. just a nice simple salad.
