ORANGE AND OLIVE SALAD



Orange and Olive Salad image

Temple oranges are shiny, spongy to the touch and deeply rutted with pores, like a cartoonist's idea of an orange. The temple orange, which arrives at stores in the winter, is worth seeking out. Start with the peel, which is thin and tight to the pulp yet zippers off as cleanly as that of the tangerine. The segments have little pith, and though their skin is delicate, they separate neatly, sparing your shirt. Pop a sector, fat and pulpy, into your mouth, and the thing just bursts. Temples are far juicier than most oranges, with a tarter, more complex taste. This is a recipe, adapted from "Jane Grigson's Fruit Book" (Atheneum, 1982), that showcases their sweetness, set off by bitter greens, salty olives and black pepper.

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 temple oranges
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon wine vinegar
Salt and pepper
2 medium heads chicory or curly endive
3/4 cup kalamata or oil-cured olives, chopped

Steps:

  • Grate the zest of 2 oranges. Mix it with the oil, vinegar and a bit of salt.
  • Peel the remaining oranges, slice into thin disks (perpendicular to the segment seams) and spread out in a single layer on a large dish. Pour the dressing over them. Grind pepper until it covers them like a thin layer of sand. Leave for 2 hours or longer in a cool place.
  • Separate the chicory or endive leaves, rinse and dry them. Tear them up, place in large salad bowl. Lift the oranges from the dressing and place atop the greens, breaking up the disks into quarters. Sprinkle the olives on top, then a bit of the dressing. Toss lightly, add more dressing to taste and serve immediately.

REMOJON GRANADINO / GRANADIAN COD AND ORANGE SALAD WITH BLACK OLIVES



Remojon Granadino / Granadian Cod and Orange Salad with Black Olives image

This typical Granadian cod salad recipe comes from Restaurant Chikito, a mythic restaurant and tapas bar in Granada, which alone justifies a visit to this incredible city. This salad combines an irresistible combination of flavors and textures that I love. -Annie Sibonney

Provided by Food Network

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound potatoes
Salt
8 ounces fresh cod fillet, center-cut, skinless
3 large or 4 medium, tart, sweet oranges
1 medium white onion, finely chopped
2 small tomatoes, blanched and peeled
1/4 cup black olives, chopped (a bitter, oily, wrinkled variety)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 to 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon ground Espelette pepper (you can substitute ground cayenne pepper if Espelette pepper is not available)
1 pomegranate, seeds removed

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes with their skin on. Remove the potatoes from the heat after 15 to 20 minutes, or when ready (for this salad, the potatoes should be almost fully cooked through but still very slightly undercooked in the center). Cool. Then, peel and cut into small dice.
  • Lightly salt and sear the cod on all sides in a hot pan until you get a nice toasted brown crust on all sides, and it just cooks through (approximately 2 minutes on each side).Then flake the cod and set aside.
  • Peel the oranges, remove the segments (without the membranes), reserve 16 segments whole and roughly chop the rest into chunky pieces.
  • Finely chop the onion.
  • Remove the seeds from the tomatoes and chop them as finely as possible.
  • In a bowl, combine the diced potatoes, flaked cod, chopped onion, chopped orange pieces and chopped tomatoes. Dress the ingredients right in the bowl, with the chopped olives, olive oil, white wine vinegar, Espelette pepper and 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, or to taste. Fold together the ingredients to incorporate all the flavors well and chill for at least an hour.
  • To serve, place individual cylinder molds in the center of each plate. Lightly pack the cod salad into molds. Place 4 reserved whole orange segments on top of each cod salad and tumble over about a dozen pomegranate seeds. Unmold the salads and serve chilled.

ORANGE SALAD WITH BLACK OLIVES



Orange Salad With Black Olives image

A lovely Moroccon salad that makes a great starter, side dish or a light summer meal together with fresh bread. You can either fillet the oranges or slice them. To fillet an orange start by slicing a 1/2-inch thick piece off the top and bottom of the orange. With the fruit resting flat against the work surface, use a sharp knife to slice off the rind, including all of the bitter white pith. Slip the blade between a membrane and one section of fruit and slice to the center, separating one side of the section. Turn the blade of the knife so that it is facing out and is lined up along the membrane to free the section completely. Continue until all of the sections are removed.

Categories     Oranges

Time 15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 sweet oranges
100 g black olives (= 3 1/2 ounces, use less if desired)
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/3 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon sweet paprika

Steps:

  • Slice 1/2-inch thick piece off the top and bottom of the oranges. Slice off the rind, including all of the bitter white pith.
  • Now you have two options: either you fillet your oranges as in the original recipe or you slice them as on the picture. If you serve them as a starter or as a main dish, I find it nicer to slice them and arrange the slices on individual plates. If served as a side dish, it is probably more convenient to fillet the oranges (see introduction).
  • If you choose to slice the peeled oranges, arrange the slices nicely on individual plates. If you choose to fillet the oranges, chop the fillets in 1 cm / 1/2 inch cubes.
  • Pit the olives and either halve them or cut them into stripes (that's what I do). Arrange them on top of your sliced oranges or put them into a bowl and add your chopped oranges and olives.
  • Mix all the ingredients for the dressing and drizzle the dressing over your sliced oranges or mix it carefully with the chopped ones.
  • This salad should not be mixed in advance, as the olives will colour the oranges.

Sliced Orange Salad with Sauteed Olives and Ricotta Salata image

Provided by Michael Chiarello : Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 17m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 medium navel oranges
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 cup oil-cured black olives, pitted and halved
12 cups lightly packed baby spinach or arugula leaves
Finely ground sea salt, preferably gray salt
Freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces ricotta salata
2 medium navel oranges, juiced
Finely ground sea salt, preferably gray salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Using a vegetable peeler, remove the zest from 2 oranges in strips. Cut the strips lengthwise as thinly as possible until you have 2 tablespoons of thin slices. Reserve the thin slices and discard the remaining zest. Using a sharp knife, remove the entire rind from the 6 oranges and cut them lengthwise in half. Cut each half crosswise into 1/4-inch slices to form half-moons. Remove the seeds.
  • Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over high heat. Add the rosemary to the skillet, cook for a few seconds, and then add the olives. Cook for 10 seconds or until the olives begin to absorb the rosemary-infused oil. Stir in the reserved 2 tablespoons of thinly sliced orange zest. Cook for a few seconds, then remove the skillet from the heat and allow the mixture to cool in the skillet.
  • Add the orange juice to a medium-sized bowl and pour in twice the amount of olive oil as there is juice. Whisk lightly until combined. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Put the spinach in a large bowl. Add the reserved orange slices and pour in the olive-orange mixture from the skillet. Add the vinaigrette and toss gently to evenly coat the spinach. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls. Grate some ricotta salata over the top, and serve immediately.
  • Twice the amount of olive oil as orange juice .

FENNEL AND ORANGE SALAD WITH BLACK OLIVES ON A BED OF COUSCOUS



Fennel and Orange Salad With Black Olives on a Bed of Couscous image

A salad, modeled on a traditional North African one, that is great for buffets. The salad is modeled on a traditional North African salad of oranges, onions and olives. I substitute thinly sliced fennel for the onions, and serve it over a bed of steamed couscous. You could serve it on its own, but it is a shame to leave so much juice behind in the bowl, and the couscous soaks it up in a delicious way. The dish is a great idea for buffets as it stands up well over the course of a few hours.

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, salads and dressings, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Salt to taste
1 1/2 teaspoons mild honey or sugar
1 teaspoon crushed cumin seeds
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Pinch of cayenne (optional)
1 cup couscous
Salt to taste
2 medium fennel bulbs (about 1 1/4 pounds), quartered and cored
2 tablespoons chopped imported black olives (about 1/2 ounce), plus 12 imported black olives, pitted and halved
4 navel oranges or 6 to 8 Valencia oranges (depending on the size)
Chopped fresh parsley or fennel fronds for garnish

Steps:

  • Reconstitute the couscous. Place it in a bowl, add salt to taste and cover by 1/2 inch with hot water. Let sit until all of the water has been absorbed by the couscous, stirring every once in a while. Cover the bowl with a plate and place in the microwave. Microwave for 3 minutes. Carefully remove from the microwave (the bowl will be hot). Uncover and fluff with forks. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the ingredients for the dressing.
  • Remove tough outer layers of the fennel bulb and discard. Using a sharp knife or a mandolin, slice the fennel quarters as thin as you can. Place in a bowl and toss with half the dressing and the chopped olives.
  • Spoon the couscous into a wide bowl or onto a platter and smooth to make an even layer. Arrange the fennel on top, making sure to tip out any dressing from the bottom of the bowl over the fennel and couscous.
  • Cut away the peel and pith from the oranges and slice into thin rounds. Tip any juice that runs out of the oranges as you are working with them over the fennel. Arrange the orange slices over the fennel.
  • Drizzle the remaining dressing over the oranges. Arrange the halved olives on top, sprinkle with chopped parsley or fennel fronds and serve, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
