What a lovely showpiece for beautiful blood oranges! I used the baby greens as in the salad on the previous page. There would have been a greater color contrast if you used the recommended baby romaine lettuce, but the red greens complemented the blood oranges nicely too. I chopped my almonds instead of crushing them and I kept thinking I was biting a lemon seed. The dressing was great, but next time I would prefer it on the greens instead of over the sliced oranges. I also am finding that I am not a fan yet of orange flower water, but being in the middle of an orange grove in full flower I realized it smells how the water tastes, so I am still trying (to like it). This salad bears repeating.
