Garden Recipes | Bye Bye Seasonal Citrus Salad

Here’s a recipe for a last hurrah of the citrus season.  But, no tears now…spring fruit is on the horizon!

Citrus Salad with Some Spice

¼ cup sugar
½ tsp red pepper flakes
¼ cup (packed) cilantro, plus more for serving
4 blood oranges
4 clementines
2 navel oranges
2 tangerines

Combine sugar, cilantro, red pepper flakes and ¼ cup water in a small saucepan.  Heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved.  Strain cilantro syrup through a sieve into a clean jar and set aside.

Using a sharp knife, remove peel and white pith from all of the fruit and slice crosswise into ¼” thick rounds.  Arrange on a platter, drizzle with the cilantro syrup and top with additional cilantro leaves.
