Jicama Beet And Orange Salad Recipes

JICAMA-ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Peel and segment the oranges with a paring knife (see page 52). Squeeze the empty membranes over a large bowl to release the juices.
• Whisk the chili powder, salt and pepper to taste, the olive oil and lime juice into the orange juice. Toss in the orange segments and jicama. Before serving, add the scallions, cilantro and pomegranate seeds.

JICAMA, BEET, AND ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Fill a small saucepan with water. Bring to a boil and add salt. When water returns to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer. Add beets and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool. Cut beets into 4-by-2-inch slices; place in a large bowl.
• Using a zester or vegetable peeler, zest the rind of one of the oranges. Finely chop and add to another large bowl along with the lime juice, orange juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, sugar, and oil. Mix well and pour over beets; let stand 1 hour.
• Remove peel and pith from the oranges using a sharp paring knife. Carefully cut between membranes to remove segments; set aside.
• Add jicama and orange segments to the beet mixture and season with salt. Place arugula on a serving platter and place beet mixture on top. Sprinkle with peanuts and garnish with sugar can cane.

JICAMA SALAD

Steps:

• Using a mandolin or very sharp knife, julienne the jicama, beets, and carrots and combine in a large bowl.
• Slice off the ends of the oranges. Using a paring knife, remove the peel and pith from the oranges, following the curve of the fruit. Slice on either side of the membranes to remove the segments. Transfer the orange segments to the jicama mixture.
• Squeeze enough juice from the membranes into a bowl, to make 1/4 cup. Whisk the lime juice into the orange juice. While whisking, drizzle in the oil to make smooth vinaigrette. Pour the vinaigrette over jicama mixture, toss to coat, and season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the jicama salad to a platter and sprinkle with the peanuts.
