Jicama Beet And Orange Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Peel and segment the oranges with a paring knife (see page 52). Squeeze the empty membranes over a large bowl to release the juices.
• Whisk the chili powder, salt and pepper to taste, the olive oil and lime juice into the orange juice. Toss in the orange segments and jicama. Before serving, add the scallions, cilantro and pomegranate seeds.

Steps:

• Fill a small saucepan with water. Bring to a boil and add salt. When water returns to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer. Add beets and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool. Cut beets into 4-by-2-inch slices; place in a large bowl.
• Using a zester or vegetable peeler, zest the rind of one of the oranges. Finely chop and add to another large bowl along with the lime juice, orange juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, sugar, and oil. Mix well and pour over beets; let stand 1 hour.
• Remove peel and pith from the oranges using a sharp paring knife. Carefully cut between membranes to remove segments; set aside.
• Add jicama and orange segments to the beet mixture and season with salt. Place arugula on a serving platter and place beet mixture on top. Sprinkle with peanuts and garnish with sugar can cane.

Steps:

• Place 1 pound beets on a large piece of foil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 3 tablespoons water; close into a packet. Roast at 400 degrees F until tender, 50 minutes. Peel the beets and cut into wedges. Whisk 1/3 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt to taste in a bowl. Add 2 segmented oranges, the beets and 1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts and toss.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients. Refrigerate for 1 hour.

Steps:

• Peel the jicama including the fibrous layer just beneath the skin. Thinly slice the flesh and then cut into 2-inch strips. Place in a bowl.
• Peel the oranges and cut supremes by trimming between the membranes to remove the sections, working over the bowl with the jicama to catch the juices. Add remaining ingredients to the bowl and toss gently. Chill 2 hours and serve.

Steps:

• Place beets in medium bowl along with jicama, avocado, orange, and cilantro.
• Whisk together orange juice concentrate, lime juice cumin, and coriander. Whisk in oil. Pour over beet mixture, and toss to mix. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Sprinkle each serving with toasted pumpkin seeds.

Steps:

• Slice 1 orange in half, and squeeze the juice from one half into a bowl. Add sherry vinegar, salt, and pepper; slowly whisk in oil.
• Cut away peel and pith of remaining 2 1/2 oranges. Slice oranges into 3/8-inch rounds, and use your hands to pull slices apart into bite-size pieces. Set aside in a large bowl.
• Cut jicama into 2-inch matchsticks. Add jicama and onions to orange pieces. Pour vinaigrette over; toss to combine.
