Best 3 Salad Of Pomegranates Haricots Verts J Recipes

SALAD OF POMEGRANATES, HARICOTS VERTS, JíCAMA AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• With a manual citrus juicer squeeze enough juice from pomegranate half, pressing sides against center of juicer and pressing on any whole seeds in juicer with thumbs, to measure 1/4 cup. Peel and cut jícama into 1/4-inch-thick slices. On a cutting board stack slices, 2 or 3 at a time, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick sticks. In a bowl toss jícama with pomegranate juice. Chill mixture, covered, tossing occasionally, 30 minutes to allow jícama to absorb some of juice.
• Have ready a bowl of ice and cold water. Trim haricots verts and in a saucepan of boiling salted water blanch 3 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Transfer beans with a slotted spoon to ice water to stop cooking and drain in a colander. Cut remaining pomegranate in half and with hands gently break in two. Bend back rinds and dislodge seeds from membranes. Coarsely chop walnuts.
• To jícama mixture add beans, pomegranate seeds, parsley, oil, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste and toss to combine.
• Serve salad sprinkled with walnuts.

AVOCADO, GRAPEFRUIT, AND POMEGRANATE SALAD

Steps:

• Combine greens, endive, radicchio, and lettuce in a large bowl; add avocado and haricot vert.
• Remove peel and pith from grapefruit using a sharp paring knife. Working over a medium bowl to catch the juice, carefully cut between membranes to remove segments, and coarsely chop. Squeeze remaining membrane to extract juice; reserve.
• To make the vinaigrette, whisk together reserved grapefruit juice, mustard, sugar, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; add chopped grapefruit. While whisking constantly, add olive oil in a slow and steady stream until combined. Pour vinaigrette over salad and toss gently to coat. Transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with pomegranate seeds. Serve immediately.
