Citrus And Endive With Walnut Gremolata Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the tangerines, grapefruits, endive and red onion on a serving platter. Sprinkle with the almonds, pomegranate seeds and cheese. Set aside.
• Whisk together the garlic, olive oil, honey, mustard and vinegar in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and serve.

Steps:

• To make the gremolata, mix together walnuts, parsley, lemon zest, fleur de sel and garlic, if using. Set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a medium or large skillet over medium heat. Place endive halves in the skillet, cut side down. They should not be touching one another. Season with kosher salt and pepper and cover pan loosely. Cook until golden brown on the cut side, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a platter or to individual plates, cut side up.
• Sprinkle a generous tablespoon of gremolata over each endive half. Drizzle with walnut oil and serve warm.

Steps:

• Peel the citrus: With a serrated knife, cut off top and bottom of the fruit, so it sits solidly on the cutting board. Cut top to bottom following fruit's curve to remove peel and white pith. Slice the oranges and grapefruit horizontally into 1/8-inch rounds and place them in a bowl. Save the accumulated juice in the bowl for the vinaigrette.
• Make the vinaigrette: Combine the shallots with red wine vinegar in a small bowl. Let stand for 10 minutes, then whisk in the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of the reserved citrus juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Slice the endives crosswise into 1-inch thick ribbons (but slice the dense core thinner) and place in the center of a salad plate.
• Surround the endive with citrus slices. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad and sprinkle lightly with coarse sea salt.
