Plan to add this gorgeous festive salad to your entertaining line-up this holiday season. Here, citrus gets splashed with Prosecco then adorned with garnet-hued pomegranate ariels and light green pistachios. To gild the lily, it’s flecked with freshly crushed pink peppercorns and sprinkled with sugar right before serving. Use a variety of oranges for more pop of color. You can either square off the oranges when peeling them or slice them into more traditional rounds. Look for pomegranate arils in your supermarket’s produce section. Buying them already removed from a whole pomegranate slashes about 10 minutes off of the prep time.
