We are getting into the dead of winter when I crave comfort food. Sometimes that might mean a crisp, clean salad. And this salad can change depending on the season.

During winter, try shavings of peeled Fuyu persimmons or apples or pears; for spring, strawberries, apricots or grapefruit; summer is a great time for peaches, cherries, or plums; and in the fall, use satsumas, Pixie tangerines, or oranges. The balsamic vinaigrette agrees with all these fruit variations.
