ALICE WATERS'S GRAPEFRUIT AND AVOCADO SALAD

This simple, refreshing salad from Alice Waters, the founder and owner of Chez Panisse, the legendary Berkeley restaurant, can be served as a first course or to revive the palate between the main course and dessert. It came to The Times in 2010 when the Well blog featured a number of recipes from "The Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival Cookbook: Recipes and Behind-the-Scenes Stories from America's Hottest Chefs."

Alice Waters's Grapefruit and Avocado Salad image

Steps:

  • With a sharp knife, peel the grapefruit down to the flesh, removing all the rind and pith. Cut the sections free, slicing carefully along the partitioning membranes, and set them aside. Squeeze the juice from the membranes. Measure 2 tablespoons of the juice into a small bowl.
  • Stir the vinegar into the juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Whisk in the oil. Taste, and adjust the acid and salt.
  • Peel the avocado halves and cut them into 1/4-inch slices. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Arrange the grapefruit sections and avocado slices alternately on a plate, and spoon the vinaigrette over. Garnish with chervil, and serve.

AVOCADO & GRAPEFRUIT SALAD (AKA FRIENDLY FLAVOR FUSION)

This is another recipe from the "1 of a Kind" cookbook of the Junior League of Mobile, AL. When SusieQusie & I talked about this recipe, she told me I might be a little too fusion-friendly, but it still intrigued me. I liked all the flavor elements & it clearly was an easy fix, so I decided to enter it. Grapefruit is hard to find here, so I hope another fusion-friendly chef will give it a try & validate my fusion-friendly status. Enjoy! (Time does not include time for dressing to chill)
