ORANGE AND OLIVE SALAD



Orange and Olive Salad image

Temple oranges are shiny, spongy to the touch and deeply rutted with pores, like a cartoonist's idea of an orange. The temple orange, which arrives at stores in the winter, is worth seeking out. Start with the peel, which is thin and tight to the pulp yet zippers off as cleanly as that of the tangerine. The segments have little pith, and though their skin is delicate, they separate neatly, sparing your shirt. Pop a sector, fat and pulpy, into your mouth, and the thing just bursts. Temples are far juicier than most oranges, with a tarter, more complex taste. This is a recipe, adapted from "Jane Grigson's Fruit Book" (Atheneum, 1982), that showcases their sweetness, set off by bitter greens, salty olives and black pepper.

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 temple oranges
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon wine vinegar
Salt and pepper
2 medium heads chicory or curly endive
3/4 cup kalamata or oil-cured olives, chopped

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.
