Radish Orange Goat Cheese Salad Recipe 485 Food

VIBRANT ORANGE & ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• First, toast the almonds: In a small skillet over medium heat, warm the almonds until they are fragrant and starting to turn golden on the edges, stirring frequently (careful, they'll burn!), about 5 minutes. Transfer them to a bowl to cool.
• Place the arugula on a large serving platter or into a large serving bowl. Arrange the oranges, toasted almonds, goat cheese and radishes on top. Sprinkle the top lightly with a pinch or two of cinnamon. Set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, honey and salt. Whisk together until blended. Taste, and add a little more honey if it's unpleasantly tart.
• Once you're ready to serve, drizzle the dressing lightly over the salad (you might have a little extra), toss, and serve immediately.

PICKLED BEETS AND BREAKFAST RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together rice-wine vinegar and sugar until sugar is dissolved. Peel beets and very thinly slice using a mandoline. Transfer sliced beets to a medium bowl and add vinegar mixture, reserving 3 tablespoons of vinegar mixture. Let beets stand for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Fit a baking sheet with a rack and set aside.
• Place olives in the bowl of a food processor; with the machine on high, slowly add 1/3 cup olive oil. Process until a fine paste is formed. Place bread on prepared baking sheet and spread olive paste evenly on both sides of each slice of bread. Transfer to oven and bake until bread is toasted, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
• Place cooled bread in the bowl of a food processor; process until fine crumbs are formed. Transfer crumbs to a medium skillet and toast over medium heat; remove from heat and set aside.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Prepare an ice-water bath and set aside. Generously salt boiling water and return to a boil; add radishes and onions and cook for 30 seconds. Drain and immediately transfer to ice-water bath to cool. Drain and peel onions. Transfer radishes and onions to a medium bowl; set aside.
• Remove beets from vinegar mixture, squeezing out any excess; transfer beets to a medium bowl and set aside. Discard vinegar mixture.
• In a small bowl, whisk together goat cheese and creme fraiche until well combined. Divide goat cheese mixture evenly between each of 8 serving bowls; spread goat cheese mixture in bottom of each bowl to create a 4 1/2-inch circle; sprinkle bread crumbs over goat cheese mixture.
• Drizzle radishes and onions with 1/4 cup olive oil and season with sea salt. Toss to combine and divide evenly between each serving bowl. Drizzle beets with 1/4 cup olive oil and season with sea salt. Toss to combine and add to bowls with radishes and onions.
• In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar and remaining 2/3 cup olive oil until well combined; drizzle over salads, keeping in mind you may not need to use all of the dressing. Garnish with watercress and micro herbs; serve immediately.

• Mince shallot. Place in small bowl. Cover with 2 1/2 tablespoons of the vinegar add a pinch of salt and set aside. Trim the ends of the radishes. Thinly slice on a mandoline. Arrange slices on a platter. Season all over with salt. Cut off each end of each orange and squeeze over the radishes, then discard. Use a sharp knife to remove the skin from the orange. Cut in between membranes to remove each slice. Squeeze remaining membrane all over the radishes to extract any juice. Scatter oranges over the radishes. Scatter pumpkin seeds and goat cheese to taste over the radishes and oranges. Pour macerated shallots and vinegar over top. Drizzle olive oil to taste (one to two tablespoons) over top.
