Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pink grapefruit
2 teaspoons white-wine vinegar
Pinch of coarse salt (optional)
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 head Belgian endive
6 ounces mixed baby lettuces, such as frisee, mizuna, arugula, and tatsoi
3 ounces fresh goat cheese, room temperature
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Before peeling grapefruit, zest about one-quarter of the rind with a grater or zester (you should have about 1 teaspoon finely grated zest). Set aside.
  • Peel grapefruit: Using a sharp knife, slice off both ends. Carefully slice downward, following the shape of the fruit to remove remaining rind and all pith. Slice grapefruit in half lengthwise, and place cut side down on a cutting board. Slice each half into six semicircles; set aside.
  • Place reserved grated zest in a small bowl, and add vinegar and salt, if using. Whisk in oil, and set aside.
  • Slice endive in half lengthwise, and remove core with a small knife. Slice each half lengthwise into 1/4-inch-wide strips. Place in a medium bowl, and add the salad greens; drizzle with dressing, and crumble in half of the goat cheese. Toss thoroughly to coat leaves evenly.
  • Divide among four salad plates, and arrange three grapefruit slices on top of each serving. Slice remaining goat cheese into four rounds, and place one on top of each salad. Season with pepper, and serve immediately.

Not my favorite salad. The flavors just didn't work for me.

This salad was a disappointment. The dressing was bland and the grapefruit was too sour. I ended up throwing most of it away.

I thought this salad was just okay. The dressing was a bit too tart for my taste, and the grapefruit didn't really add anything to the flavor. I probably won't be making this again.

I've made this salad several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The dressing is light and refreshing, and the grapefruit adds a nice citrusy flavor. I also like that it's a relatively healthy salad, so I can feel good about eating it.
