Vodka-Infused Tangerine Olive Salad

Preparation Cut the olivie into small cubes and soak it in cold water for 15 minutes to reduce the saltiness. Cut the crusty bread into bite-sized cubes. Peel the tangerines and thinly slice the peel.

Infusing the Vodka In a bowl, combine the tangerine peels and vodka. Cover the bowl and let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour to infuse the vodka with the tangerine flavor. After 1 hour, strain the vodka to remove the tangerine peels.

Assembling the Salad In a large bowl, combine the soaked olivie, crusty bread cubes, and infused vodka. Toss gently to mix the ingredients.

Making the Dressing In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, white wine vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Final Steps Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat everything evenly. Let the salad sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
