Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the salad will taste. If possible, use organic produce.
- Choose a variety of citrus fruits: Different citrus fruits have different flavors, so using a variety will add complexity to the salad. Some good options include oranges, grapefruits, lemons, limes, and tangerines.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the citrus fruits: This will help prevent the fruit from tearing or bruising.
- Remove the seeds from the citrus fruits: Seeds can be bitter and unpleasant to eat.
- Use a light hand with the dressing: Too much dressing can overwhelm the delicate flavors of the citrus fruits.
- Serve the salad immediately: Citrus fruits can start to lose their flavor if they sit for too long.
