Orange Citronette Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk all the ingredients together in a nonreactive medium bowl until combined. Use immediately, or refrigerate, covered, for up to 3 days.

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.

Steps:

• Stir together saffron and water in a small bowl until saffron begins to dissolve (threads will still be intact). Transfer saffron mixture to a food processor along with remaining ingredients except oil, then pulse until combined. With motor running, add oil in a thin, steady stream until aïoli is thickened and emulsified. Transfer to a bowl and chill, covered, until ready to use.

Steps:

• Stir 1/2 tsp of salt int the lemon juice until dissolved.
• Slowly beat in the oil a little at a time.
• Season to taste with ground white pepper.
• Toss dressing with prepared vegetables.

Steps:

• Dissolve salt in vinegar; whisk in oil. Since there is nothing in a basic vinaigrette to keep it emulsified, use immediately.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together orange zest, sugar, salt, and lemon juice. Slowly whisk in olive oil until emulsified. Season with salt.
