Ingredients

  • 2-3 small heads Castelfranco Di Lusia chicory
  • 1-2 small heads Treviso chicory
  • 3-4 Satsuma tangerines, peeled with a paring knife and sliced into wheels or segments
  • 1 cup pomegranate seeds
  • Tarragon

For the Orange Marmalade Vinaigrette

  • cup apple cider vinegar, try Sideyard’s Yuzu-infused vinegar for an extra pop
  • cup olive oil
  • cup Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons orange marmalade
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon Freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  1. To begin washing your chicories, fill your sink with cold water and gently place them head down to soak. Next, arrange them on a kitchen towel to air dry.
  2. Rather than cutting, gently peel away each leaf after cutting off the root.
  3. To make the marmalade vinaigrette, combine all the ingredients in a small Mason jar and set aside. Keep at room temperature until you are ready to dress your salad.
  4. Once the leaves are thoroughly dry and you are prepared to serve, arrange the chicories and Satsuma tangerines in your serving bowl. Give your vinaigrette a generous shake to mix, and then gently dress your salad. Pour the vinaigrette slowly, adding a little at a time. Be careful not to overdress. Garnish with the pomegranate seeds and fresh tarragon, and serve.
