A Note From feedfeed

Bring on all that fresh citrus! We used Shun Cutlery to get perfect jewel-toned citrus rounds which we brûléed with a bit of sugar before laying them on top of an herbed yogurt.  We finished this bright and vibrant salad with fresh pomegranate (check out how to prep one like a boss here!), salty feta, fresh mint, sumac, olive oil, pistachios and flaky salt. It hits on all the key flavors and textures!

* Note:  If you do not own a culinary torch, you can skip this part of the recipe and adapt by adding a small drizzle of honey on top of the finished salad to bring out some of the sweetness.  Alternatively, you can add the citrus to a sturdy baking pan and sprinkle it with sugar and broil it in the oven for a few minutes, but keep a very close eye so it does not burn.
