Batavia Lettuce And Radish Salad With Oranges Food

LETTUCE RADISH SALAD WITH LEMON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine and stir together 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp ground black pepper. Set aside.
• Rinse and paper towel pat dry all vegetables.
• In a medium salad bowl, combine 4 small thinly sliced cucumbers, 1 bunch thinly sliced radishes and 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh chives. (Using Benriner Mandoline makes it extra easy).
• Chop 1 large romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and add it to the salad.
• Drizzle with lemon vinaigrette and toss gently until salad is evenly coated. You can also drizzle without tossing the salad and serve.

ORANGE, RADISH, AND MINT SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the top and bottom off of each orange. Stand the orange on 1 end on a cutting board and, following the curve of the fruit, cut away the skin and pith of the orange. Cut each orange section out of its pith.
• In a medium bowl toss together the orange sections, onion, radishes, and mint leaves. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper.

ORANGE AND RADISH SALAD WITH PISTACHIOS

Steps:

• Remove orange peels: Cut off both ends of the oranges. Stand them up on the cut side and remove the rest of the peel and pith by cutting away strips; move your knife down the sides of the orange from top to bottom. Use a cutting board with a canal for catching juices, and cut oranges, crosswise, into rounds. Place in a bowl and tip in juices. Add fleur de sel and chopped mint, and toss together.
• Slice radishes and daikon as thin as you can. (Use a mandolin or a Japanese slicer if you have one.) Place in separate bowl and sprinkle with fleur de sel.
• Whisk together lemon juice, agave, cinnamon, cayenne and pistachio oil. Divide evenly among the two bowls with oranges and radishes, and toss.
• Use a slotted spoon to lift oranges from juices that accumulate in bowl and arrange, with radishes, on a platter or plates. Just before serving, spoon on the juices and dressing left behind in bowl, and top with pistachios and mint.

ORANGE AND RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• Wash the radishes, cut off the green tops and the roots, and grate the radishes into a glass salad bowl. Peel the oranges and segment them, reserving 2 tablespoons of the juice. (Remove all the white pith from the orange with a sharp paring knife and then, holding the orange in one hand, run the knife around each segment inside the membrane. Do this over a small bowl to catch the juice.) Place the orange segments in the bowl with the grated radish. Mix the remaining ingredients and the reserved orange juice together in a small bowl and pour the marinade over the radish and orange mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 30 minutes so that the flavors mix. Serve at room temperature.

ORANGE AND RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• Combine lemon juice, sugar and ¼ teaspoon salt in a jar. Twist on the lid and shake until the sugar and salt dissolve; chill dressing thoroughly.
• When ready to serve, simply arrange the orange rounds on a serving dish or individual plates, top with a pretty pile of radish matchsticks and drizzle with the dressing. Grate a bit of orange zest on top, if desired, and serve with the tiniest bit of flaky sea salt for finishing, if you like - but that exact amount is best left to individual diners.

ORANGE ROMAINE SALAD

Steps:

• In a small container with a tight-fitting lid, combine the vinegar, oil, honey, salt, pepper and green onion. Close the lid, and shake vigorously to blend.
• Place the romaine lettuce into a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with dressing and toss to coat. Add orange slices and toss gently. Serve immediately.

ORANGE AND RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• In a small bowl stir together lemon juice, orange-flower water, sugar, cinnamon, cayenne, and salt until sugar is dissolved.
• With a serrated knife cut away orange peels and pith, discarding them, and cut oranges crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange orange slices on a platter and pour lemon juice mixture over them. Let orange slices macerate 30 minutes.
• Trim radishes and halve lengthwise. Cut radishes into thin half circles and scatter over orange slices. Garnish salad with radish leaves.

ORANGE LETTUCE SALAD

Steps:

• In a salad bowl, toss the lettuce, onions and oranges; set aside. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the oil, vinegar, sugar, parsley, salt if desired, pepper and hot pepper sauce; shake well. Drizzle desired amount over salad; toss to coat. Sprinkle with almonds if desired. Refrigerate any remaining dressing.

CARROT, ORANGE & AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the segments from 2 of the oranges and put in a bowl with the carrots, rocket and avocados. Whisk together the orange juice, zest and oil. Toss through the salad, and season.

SICILIAN-STYLE CITRUS SALAD

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Whisk together olive oil and vinegar in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. It should be tart but not over-vinegary. Taste and add a little more olive oil if necessary.
• To peel the citrus fruit, use a small serrated knife. First, cut off a thin slice of peel from the top and bottom of the orange, so it can sit flat and securely on the cutting board. Use a sawing motion to take off the peel, cutting from top to bottom, following the curve of the fruit. Remove only the peel and white pith, not the flesh of the orange. It should now be perfectly spherical and naked. Peel remaining oranges and grapefruit in this fashion.
• Carefully slice peeled citrus crosswise. Arrange slices on a large serving platter in a random pattern, letting them overlap a bit here and there. Scatter onion, fennel and celery over top. Dot the surface with olives. Surround with salad leaves, if using.
• Whisk vinaigrette, and spoon evenly over the salad. Sprinkle lightly with flaky salt and serve.
