Best 6 Celery Grapefruit And Olive Salad Recipes

CELERY & OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• In a medium-sized glass or plastic bowl, stir together celery, olives, olive oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or as long as overnight.
• Serve as an accompaniment to fish or meat.

ORECCHIETTE, CELERY, AND OLIVE SALAD WITH RICOTTA SALATA

Steps:

• Using the side of a chef's knife, mash garlic with 1 teaspoon salt into a paste. Transfer to a small bowl; whisk in lemon juice, vinegar, oregano, and oil. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
• Cook pasta in generously salted water according to package directions until cooked all the way through. Drain (but don't rinse, which would waterlog the noodles), then spread on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with half of vinaigrette. Let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss fennel, capers and brine, chickpeas, ricotta salata, and celery with remaining vinaigrette. Add pasta; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate up to a day ahead; let stand at room temperature at least 30 minutes before serving. (Cold pasta salad is too firm and less flavorful.) Toss with Parmigiano-Reggiano and celery leaves; serve.

OLIVE AND CELERY SALAD WITH ROASTED RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Combine the red peppers, olives, celery and romaine in a large bowl.
• In a cruet, add the olive oil, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Shake to combine. Pour over the salad in the bowl, toss together and serve.

SICILIAN OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• In a large sieve rinse olives and drain well. Thinly slice celery, carrot, onion, and garlic and in a bowl stir together with remaining ingredients. Marinate salad, covered and chilled, at least 1 day and up to 3 days. Bring salad to room temperature before serving.

SICILIAN-STYLE CITRUS SALAD

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Whisk together olive oil and vinegar in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. It should be tart but not over-vinegary. Taste and add a little more olive oil if necessary.
• To peel the citrus fruit, use a small serrated knife. First, cut off a thin slice of peel from the top and bottom of the orange, so it can sit flat and securely on the cutting board. Use a sawing motion to take off the peel, cutting from top to bottom, following the curve of the fruit. Remove only the peel and white pith, not the flesh of the orange. It should now be perfectly spherical and naked. Peel remaining oranges and grapefruit in this fashion.
• Carefully slice peeled citrus crosswise. Arrange slices on a large serving platter in a random pattern, letting them overlap a bit here and there. Scatter onion, fennel and celery over top. Dot the surface with olives. Surround with salad leaves, if using.
• Whisk vinaigrette, and spoon evenly over the salad. Sprinkle lightly with flaky salt and serve.

CELERY, RADISH, AND OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• Remove outer dark green ribs of celery and reserve for another use. Remove leaves and reserve in a bowl. Cut off and discard base of celery heart, then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices and add to celery leaves along with remaining ingredients. Toss to coat.
