A citranette uses citrus juice rather than vinegar for a dressing’s acidic element. Dark leafy greens are at their best in the fall, so experiment with a variety of baby greens for this salad, if you like.

Ingredients

1/2 cup grapefruit juice
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon grapefruit zest
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
3 cups roughly chopped frisée
3 cups roughly chopped baby romaine, spinach or arugula
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onions
1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts (optional)

Method

In a large bowl, whisk together juice, honey, salt and pepper. Drizzle in oil while continuing to whisk constantly, then stir in zest and parsley.

Add frisée, baby greens and onions and toss gently to coat. Transfer salad to plates, garnish with walnuts and serve.
