Red onion and orange slices sprinkled with basil, oil and ground pepper make a pretty presentation that's bound to brighten any meal. "This zesty salad is even more colorful when you use dark-red blood oranges," writes Beverly Coyde of Gasport, New York.

SICILIAN-INSPIRED BLOOD ORANGE SALAD FOR 2
Tinkered and rearranged from a recipe found on apartmenttherapy.com. I also toyed with the thought of roasting the oranges (or {pan} grilling} and red onions but alas ran out of time, my fine foodie friends! Enjoying the seasonal specialty oranges available at the store *while I still have time*! PS I toasted the pistachios with the cumin seeds.

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.

SICILIAN SALT COD AND ORANGE SALAD
Officially called Insalata di Baccala e Arancie, this is a wonderful salad with real blood oranges. I have found that blood oranges from California are not a good substitute for the real thing--so if you can't get really good blood oranges, add the chunked flesh of a lemon to your two really good non-blood oranges. This works with kalamata olives or black oil-cured olives--your choice. If you want greens, the bitter greens really do work best.

Steps:

- Dry the fish as best you can with paper towels.
- Pull the fish into shreds with your hands.
- Prepare the salad.
- Cut off each end of each of the oranges (and the lemon if you are using one).
- Stand each orange on end and using a jig-saw motion slice away the skin and white pith.
- Slice the flesh of the fruit into chunks.
- Combine the chunks of fruit in a bowl with the olives, onion, chili, oil, vinegar, salt cod and oregano.
- Toss to mix well.
- Cover with plastic wrap and set aside, at room temperature, for at least an hour.
