Walnut oil not only imbues its toasted nutty taste but also gives an extraordinary silken quality to the vinaigrette.

WINTER PASTELS: RUBY GRAPEFRUIT AND AVOCADO SALAD WITH CITRUS-CHAMPAGNE VINAIGRETTE

2 large heads butter lettuce, washed, dried, and broken up into large leaves

2 limes

3 avocados

3 large ruby grapefruit, peeled and sliced into thin wedges (reserve rinds for vinaigrette)

1 cup chopped walnuts, toasted

Citrus-Champagne Vinaigrette (recipe follows)

Place the butter lettuce leaves onto a large plate. Zest the limes and reserve the zest for the vinaigrette. Squeeze the lime juice into a medium bowl. Slice the avocados into fan-like sections and dip into the lime juice. Scatter the slices of grapefruit and avocado over the lettuce and top with the toasted walnuts. Drizzle generously with the Citrus-Champagne Vinaigrette and serve.

Makes 10 to 12 servings.

3 tablespoons grapefruit juice (squeezed from your sliced rinds)
