Kumquat and Cranberry are the names of my two cats. Found a great one. Kumquats are like little oranges, except the skin is sweeter than the flesh. If you can find kumquats where you are then you'll definitely want to try this. Marvelous combination of sour, sweet, salty and a touch bitter from the greens. From a recent Sunday's New York Times magazine. Ingredients:
5 kumquats |
4 cups baby arugula |
1/2 cup flat leaf parsley |
2 dates, pitted and diced (preferably medjool) |
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, shavings (made with vegetable peeler) |
2 teaspoons lemon juice |
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil |
kosher salt, to taste |
pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Slice kumquats into thin rounds, discarding seeds (do not peel).
2. Combine arugula, parsley, dates, kumquats and parmesan in a large bowl.
3. Whisk together lemon juice and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over salad and toss.
