Orange, Arugula and Shaved Radish Salad

Bright and refreshing, this salad combines thinly shaved radishes with juicy oranges and peppery arugula (or watercress), all tossed with a tangy-sweet vinaigrette. We let the salad stand for about 15 minutes before serving so the radish slices soften and absorb the flavorful vinaigrette. The recipe calls for red radishes, but use any variety you like. A mandoline makes fast work of thinly slicing the radishes; keep the green tops attached so you can hold onto them like a handle. When peeling the oranges, be sure to remove the white pith, which tastes bitter.
