AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario) executive chef Anne Yarymowich created this salad to showcase some key flavours of the Middle East. She'll serve a composed version of it in Frank restaurant (with oranges cut into 1/4-inch rounds and each ingredient added separately). The presentation below is easier to serve at home. Pomegranate cutting instructions: Use a paring knife to cut off the top about 1/2-inch below the crown. Inside you'll see four to six sections. Score the red skin at each section. Separate the pomegranate at each score. Over a bowl of water, loosen the arils (flesh-covered seeds) by hand and drop them into the bowl. They will sink. Use a spoon to scoop out pieces of white membrane that float to the top. Strain. (You will have to pick out remaining white bits by hand.)
