Mediterranean Beet Salad with Tangerines, Greens and Feta
A delicious and hearty salad made with beets, tangerines, greens, and walnuts. Crispy, filling and flavorful with the addition of the tangy crumbled feta and the citrus vinaigrette.
Juice 4 tangerines (do not peel before juicing) and strain. Place in a small saucepan with a pinch of sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce heat for a strong simmer and cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 8-10 minutes. Let it cool.
Empty the reduced tangerine juice in a small bowl, add a 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, a pinch of salt a bit of fresh black pepper and the mustard and mix, whisk in the olive oil until dressing thickens. You can also mix everything in a jar.
