How to Make Blood Orange Salad (Insalata D’ Arrance Sangouse)

Sicily is known for its beautiful, lush orange groves, which produce some of the world’s most fragrant oranges. First introduced by the Arabs during their rule of the island, orange trees flourished in the ashes along the base of Mt. Etna. Look for the sweetest oranges possible for this recipe. If you can, use Sicilian blood oranges; their red color imparts festive flair to this sumptuous salad.
