Kathy Woolner's Winter Orange-Onion
Salad: Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups cranberries, fresh or frozen
1/3 cup sugar
4 medium oranges
2 tbsps salad oil
2 tbsps red wine vinegar
12 cups mixed greens, torn and crisped
1/2 cup red onion rings, thinly sliced and separated into rings
salt and pepper
Instructions:
In a 1 1/2- or 2-quart pan, combine and stir cranberries and sugar.
Cover and cook over low heat, shaking the pan occasionally, just until a few cranberries
begin to burst (about 8 minutes for fresh, 15 minutes for frozen).
Let cool.
Grate enough orange peel to make 1 teaspoon.
Ream one of the oranges to make 3 tablespoons of juice.
Mix orange peel, orange juice, oil and vinegar; gently stir into cranberry mixture. (This
may be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 days.)
Remove peel and white membrane from the remaining oranges; thinly slice.
In salad bowl, combine orange slices, salad greens, and onion.
Pour cranberry dressing over the salad and toss well.
Serves 8.
This salad was enjoyed at Founders Day by Tri
Deltas from Palo Alto, Peninsula, and San Jose!
