Have you ever wondered how to get those beautifully sliced, pith-free orange rounds or sections? That's called "supreme-ing an orange." I too wondered this for a while after seeing how juicy and delicious they looked atop salads, being none too fond of pithy orange slices.
Two of my favorite salads for oranges cut this way are Lettuce with Oranges, Fennel and Pomegranate, and Mixed Greens with Oranges and Balsamic Steak - perfect ways to showcase oranges this season. Supreme-ing an orange allows you to experience the full flavor of the orange without the bitter, and sometimes chewy, pith. Plus, I think they look super pretty this way - much more so than just peeling and sectioning an orange.
Of course, you don't need to limit yourself to just oranges. Grapefruit, clementine, tangerine, tangelos ... all kinds of citrus can be prepared this way. Give it a try!
