ORANGE AND OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• Grate the zest of 2 oranges. Mix it with the oil, vinegar and a bit of salt.
• Peel the remaining oranges, slice into thin disks (perpendicular to the segment seams) and spread out in a single layer on a large dish. Pour the dressing over them. Grind pepper until it covers them like a thin layer of sand. Leave for 2 hours or longer in a cool place.
• Separate the chicory or endive leaves, rinse and dry them. Tear them up, place in large salad bowl. Lift the oranges from the dressing and place atop the greens, breaking up the disks into quarters. Sprinkle the olives on top, then a bit of the dressing. Toss lightly, add more dressing to taste and serve immediately.

ORANGE AND OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• Slice off the top and bottom of the oranges. You want to cut off just enough that the internal flesh is barely exposed. On a cutting board, lay the orange down on one of its cut surfaces, then insert the knife blade into the space between the flesh and the skin at an angle that matches the contour of the fruit. Work your knife around with a gentle sawing motion, following the contour of the fruit and removing just enough skin to expose the flesh underneath. Use your knife to trim off any extra bits of remaining white pith as it is bitter.
• Slice the oranges into cross-wise slices 1/4 of an inch thick, to make beautiful round slices. Lay slices overlapping slightly in your serving dish. Tumble on the black ripe olives, pomegranate seeds, sliced red onion and mint leaves.
• Make the dressing by combing the lemon juice, orange juice, olive oil, hot paprika or cayenne if using, and sea salt in a bowl. Spoon the dressing liberally over the salad and serve at room temperature.

ORANGE AND OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• Remove the peel and membrane, exposing the juicy flesh, of: 4 small or 3 medium oranges.
• Slice into 1/4-inch-thick round pinwheels and arrange them on a plate. Cut in half lengthwise, peel, and slice thin: 1 small red onion.
• Onion slices cut horizontally are prettier than slices cut lengthwise. If the onions are particularly strong, soak them in ice water for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain them well before adding to the salad. Make a vinaigrette. Mix together: 2 tablespoons orange juice, 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar, Salt and fresh-ground black pepper.
• Whisk in: 2 tablespoons olive oil.
• Taste and adjust with more salt and vinegar as needed. Scatter the onion slices over the oranges and spoon the vinaigrette over. Garnish with: Small black olives (4 or 5 per person).
• I prefer to serve the olives unpitted to preserve their integrity and beauty, but be sure to tell your friends so they know the pits are there. Use niçoise olives if you can find them, but any briny black olive will do (large ones can be coarsely chopped, if you like).
