Citrus and Avocado Salad with Orange Water

Directions

1. 1.

   Using a paring knife, remove peel and white pith from citrus, being careful not to remove too much of the flesh. Slice citrus into 1/2"-thick rounds, then cut into 1 1/2" pieces (it looks cool and is less fussy if pieces aren’t too exact in shape and size). Transfer to a medium bowl and add kumquats, if using, lemon juice, orange-flower water, and salt. Toss and let sit 5 minutes so citrus can release some of their juices.

2. 2.

   Transfer citrus, leaving juice behind, to a large plate. Tuck avocado in between and around citrus.

3. 3.

   Spoon citrus juice over salad, scatter pistachios and tarragon over, and drizzle with oil.
