Grapefruit and Avocado Salad
James Carrier
Havilah Stewart puts smoked almonds in this salad for a salty, complex note. If smoked almonds are unavailable, substitute roasted salted almonds.
How to Make It

1
With a sharp knife, cut peel and outer membrane from grapefruit. Working over a strainer set over a bowl, cut between inner membranes and fruit to release segments into strainer. Squeeze juice from membranes into bowl. Discard peel and membranes.
