SICILIAN-STYLE CITRUS SALAD
Winter is the season when many kinds of citrus fruits suddenly appear. For this savory fruit salad, a mixture of navel, blood and Cara Cara oranges and a small grapefruit make a colorful display. It's fine to use just one kind of orange, blood oranges being the classic example. Thinly sliced fennel, celery and red onion add a tasty bit of crunch. The salad is dressed assertively with oil and vinegar, and scattered with olives and flaky sea salt.

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.

CITRUSY COUSCOUS SALAD WITH BROCCOLI AND FETA
Sweet, spicy and citrusy, this pasta salad is a make-ahead dish that works hot, cold or at room temperature, and can be served as is or with chicken, salmon or shrimp. Fresno (or jalapeño) chiles soak in a tangy honey-and-citrus dressing to soften their bite and infuse the dressing with heat, giving the overall dish a slightly sweet and spicy flavor. Juicy pieces of orange impart a sunny, vacation feel to the look and taste of the dish, while the cumin gives the dressing a warm earthiness.

Steps:
- To the bottom of a large serving bowl, add the orange juice, lime juice, honey, cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk in the olive oil until the honey is dissolved. Mix in the scallions and half the chile; set aside.
- In a large lidded pot over medium-high heat, toast the couscous, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 3 cups of water, season with 1 tablespoon salt, cover and bring to a boil. Adjust the heat to maintain an active simmer and cook according to the lower end of the time frame on package's instructions, usually about 8 minutes. During the last 3 or 4 minutes of cooking (depending on the size of your florets), stir in the broccoli and cook until bright and tender, and the thickest parts are easily pierced with a fork. Drain, shake off excess water, then transfer to the serving bowl.
- Mix until the couscous has absorbed most of the dressing. Mix in the feta, pistachios, herbs, orange pieces and the remaining chile, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Eat immediately or let cool and serve at room temperature.
WINTER CITRUS SALAD WITH HONEY DRESSING
This citrus salad requires only that you overcome the notion that salads must be green; it's a novel and wonderful antidote to sorry-looking lettuce. If you're lucky and can find blood oranges, use them; same with the odd, supremely delicious and usually quite pricey pomelos.
