Instructions
- 1
Supreme the citrus: working over a large bowl to catch the juices, cut the top and bottom off each orange and grapefruit, then slice away the peel and white pith following the curve of the fruit. Hold each fruit over the bowl and cut between the membranes to release the segments, letting them fall into the bowl. Squeeze the spent membranes over the bowl to extract any remaining juice, then discard the membranes.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and emulsified.
