Florida Orange and Tangerine Salad
Ingredients
- 4 oranges
- 4 tangerines
- Or, in place of oranges, tangerines 3 grapefruit (or any citrus)
- Sprig of mint
Instructions
1. Using a cutting board or carving board (with grooves to catch the juice), stand the fruit on one side, slicing the end to allow the fruit to stand upright. With a large sharp knife, carefully slice the skin off of the fruit and cut away the white pith.
2. Next, turn the orange on its oblong side and begin cutting full round slices, 1/4″ thick. Seeds will appear, so with a smaller pairing knife, either push or edge them out of each slice. (Note: Tangerines will have more seeds than oranges.)
3. Arrange the slices in a decorative arrangement.
4. Chill in the refrigerator covered until serving.
