Instructions
First, zest the orange and grapefruit, saving the zest for the dressing.Next, suprême the citrus (follow link in the post for more visual instructions) by first slicing off the peel, then slicing in between each section of pith like pages of a book so individual gems of citrus are released. Once you reach the end of the book, squeeze the remaining core into a dish and reserve the juice for the dressing.Arrange the arugula and herbs in a salad bowl, top with citrus, strawberries, jicama, avocado, toasted pecans, pickled red onions (recipe to follow) and drizzle with citrus poppyseed dressing (recipe to follow).
Quick-Pickled Onions
Whisk apple cider vinegar, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Submerge the thinly sliced onions, adding more vinegar if necessary so the onions are covered. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Citrus Poppyseed Dressing
In a jar or bowl, whisk the apple cider vinegar, reserved citrus juice and zest, honey, garlic, mustard, salt, and pepper. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking, then add the poppyseeds. Taste and adjust how you like.
