Five-spice powder is a Chinese seasoning shortcut combining multiple flavors in one convenient
package. Tossed with orange juice and chicken,
it makes a terrific salad with a complex, layered
taste that belies the simple recipe.
3 oranges
12 cups mixed Asian or salad greens
Tips:
Often a blend of cinnamon, cloves, fennel
seed, star anise and Szechuan peppercorns, five-spice powder was originally
considered a cure-all miracle blend
encompassing the five elements (sour,
bitter, sweet, pungent, salty). Look for it in
the supermarket spice section.
To segment citrus: With a sharp knife,

Steaks are often served with hearty accompaniments like mashed potatoes, which can
make the whole meal seem heavy. Here we
lighten things up by topping pan-seared steaks
with a raw slaw dressed with pungent horseradish vinaigrette. We use shredded beets,
turnips and carrots, but feel free to change up
the combination of vegetables based on what
youre pulling from the garden.
Tips:
To prevent nicking your fingers on the
sharp holes of a box grater while shredding
round root vegetables, such as beets, shred
about half the vegetable, then use a clean
dish towel to grip the remaining half (and
protect your fingers) as you shred. Or, use
the shredding blade on your food processor
and let the machine do the work for you.
White balsamic vinegar is unaged balsamic
made from Italian white wine grapes and
grape musts (unfermented crushed

dark-colored balsamic vinegar. Look for it
near other vinegars in well-stocked supermarkets or specialty food shops.
