What a beautiful salad recipe. It's very fragrant and smells light and airy. We used Amy's suggested fruit and loved the flavor combination. The mixture of different flavors of citrus is refreshing and the honey/raspberry jam combination pulls everything together. Pomegranate seeds add a nice little crunch. This salad tastes as...

Time 46m

Number Of Ingredients 5

5-6 c segmented citrus of your choice (see below for ideas)
1/4 c honey
2 Tbsp raspberry jam
1 c pomegranate arils (optional, I use when available)
sprig(s) fresh mint (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Segment (or section) the citrus you have chosen. I usually use two pomelos, one ruby red, one white, and one pink grapefruit, two honey tangerines, and two blood orange. The sharper the knife the easier this is.
  • 2. Place sectioned pieces in a strainer/colander for ten minutes or so to let excess juice drip out. Transfer to bowl.
  • 3. If using pomegranate arils, separate them from fruit (you can sometimes also buy these already separated for you). Add to bowl.
  • 4. In small microwave-safe bowl or mug, heat honey for fifteen (15) seconds, until nice and runny. Add raspberry jam and mix.
  • 5. Pour honey mixture over fruit.
  • 6. Carefully mix.
  • 7. Serve on its own or topped with/over ice cream. Garnish with fresh mint if you wish. So simple, yet so yummy!!!
  • 8. PS: I like to juice the rest, the inner part of the citrus fruit when done sectioning out the pieces. There is usually lots of good juice left in there!
