Citrus Salad With Prosecco

Grapefruit ( and pomelos)doesn't mix with a number of cholesterol medications. I have made this salad using various oranges and other citrus fruits and tossing with some grated fresh ginger for the zing the grapefruit would have given. Or Aleppo pepper flakes

This was amazing! It is gorgeous and delicious. Plus, it is easy. One thing I would do differently is not to chop the blanched almonds. They looked like seeds. Next time, I'll add a little mint for color.

Fun, delicious, and easy to make, and as noted by David Tanis, lends itself to improvisation. The prosecco seemed to me an unusual accompaniment when I first read the recipe, but it was marvelous and I gained an appreciation for sparkling wine, as only a small amount is used in the recipe and somebody had to drink it!

My healthy-minded guests loved this, and it was so simple. I couldn't find meyer lemons, though, so I just squirted some regular lemon and lime juice over the fruit prior to serving and it was delicious.

To make it more desertish, I use Grand Marnier rather than prosecco.

I made this and added lime zest which I rolled in my fingers with sugar, then topped it with that. Rest was the same. So good.

Took the advice of another poster and rubbed some lime zest and a pinch of salt into some sugar. This is surprisingly delicious. Due to medical restrictions, did not use grapefruit, but an assortment of oranges, tangerines and blood oranges.

I left out the sugar and added mint for a less sweet version. The leftovers were even more delicious by day 3.

This is even more beautiful than the photo shows - it adds a stunning visual to a mid-winter table. And the prosecco and blanched almonds are a really nice touch.

I served this on Easter, following the delicious Mark Bittman shrimp in green sauce - perfect!! Loved by all!

Any suggestions for a non-alcohol substitute for Prosecco?

A delicious, elegant, and easy way to end a rich meal of filet mignon and lobster tail. Light and refreshing. The Meyer lemon lends a perfect herbal note. I omitted the almonds to stick to pure citrus flavors with the Prosecco drizzle. Next time I'll add them but it was a winner without.

Didn't have cara cara oranges, and halved the recipe for 2 people.
I used a bit of POM juice to toss the fruit in a large bowl, then topped the individual serving bowls with Muscato D'asti, Don't skip the sparkling topper! Having tasted the "before and after," the bubbly is transformative.

This was a wonderful addition to the dinner, and so beautiful. I didn't use the almonds and it was still impressive.

Any Prosecco would do. Just check your local market or wine shop! Need not be expensive . perhaps:

Bellenda Brut Conegliano Valdobbiande Proesecco Superior San Fermo 2014 around $19. and 88 points by WS.

Happy New Year!
