MANDARIN ORANGE AND SPINACH SALAD



Mandarin Orange and Spinach Salad image

This is a beautiful tossed salad with spinach, romaine, and mandarin oranges with a sweet, sour, slightly spicy dressing. To top it all off, glazed sliced almonds. I first made this in culinary school, and I have made it many times. It is great for entertaining. The mandarin oranges' color just "pops" against the greens. Time includes chill time for the dressing.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 large salad, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/3 cup oil
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (more or less Tabasco is best for this as it just brings some heat to the party)
1 dash black pepper
1/2 cup sliced almonds
3 tablespoons sugar
4 cups torn romaine lettuce
4 cups torn spinach leaves (or any combination of lettuces)
1 cup sliced celery
1 cup sliced green onion
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained

Steps:

  • In jar with tight-fitting lid, combine all dressing ingredients; shake well. Refrigerate 1 hour.
  • In skillet, cook almonds and sugar over medium low heat until sugar melts and coats almonds, stirring frequently. Cool; break apart.
  • Combine the rest of the salad ingredients.
  • Toss with dressing and top with almonds--I prefer to top the salad, and at the last minute, as opposed to tossing the almonds in the salad to keep the sugar from being "washed off" by the dressing.

HUDSONS SPINACH AND MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD



HUDSONS SPINACH AND MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD image

When I was young my mom and I went to a popular department store and ate at their lunch counter. They had a house spinach salad to die for. I was so lucky to acquire the recipe when I got married. This has been a salad I have used for ladies luncheons that I have catered. But, I have found that when I serve this with a steak...

1 c slivered almonds
1/2 c sugar
1/2 tsp dry mustard
3 Tbsp white vinegar

  • 2. NOTE: A little drizzle over the spinach salad is all you need. This is NOT a dressing that you pour over all the salad. This makes a 1 cup amount and should drizzle 8 servings of salad.
  • 3. *Onion juice is found in a tall bottle packaged in a box. It's found in the spice section. It's expensive but will make several cups of this dressing.
  • 4. Many people sprinkle bacon over spinach salad but this would not do with this salad. It's unusual flavor would not be enhanced with bacon.

This is a Rachael Ray recipe. I find it easier to make the dressing with my blender, rather than whisking it. That way, the orange marmalade is better incorporated.
