We’re over having to carefully cut the peels off citrus before slicing them; simply peeling them first keeps their natural shape intact and saves time.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 servings

Ingredients

1/2 cup Marcona almonds
1 teaspoon plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more
1 (8-ounce) ball burrata
6 tablespoon olive oil, divided
3 medium oranges, peeled, sliced into rounds
1 large head of radicchio, preferably Castelfranco, leaves separated
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon herbes de Provence

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Toast almonds in a dry medium skillet over medium heat, tossing often, until beginning to brown in spots, about 3 minutes. Add 1 tsp. sugar, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 2 Tbsp. water. Remove from heat and stir with a heatproof rubber spatula until water is evaporated. Sprinkle in remaining 1 Tbsp. sugar and stir until almonds are coated. Transfer to a plate and let cool. Coarsely chop.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, pulse burrata in a food processor to a coarse purée. It should look a little like cottage cheese. Add 2 Tbsp. oil and season with salt; pulse just to incorporate. (Or you can tear it with your hands, arrange on plates, and drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with salt.)

    Step 3

    Toss oranges, radicchio, vinegar, and remaining 4 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl to combine; season with salt.

    Step 4

    Divide burrata among plates and sprinkle with herbes de Provence; top with salad. Scatter almonds over.
