Step 1: Citrus ... Peel your citrus and cut into rounds, making sure to remove the seeds. Arrange on a platter lined with Boston or Bibb lettuce (any soft lettuce will work). As mentioned, use citrus in season and get a variety - and arrange it any way you like. I like to do rings, alternating between the sweet and blood orange, with the ruby red and white grapefruit; but again - use seasonal fruits.
Step 2: Finish ... Drizzle very lightly with the orange blossom water and then sift the powdered sugar over the fruit, making sure not to use too much. Just a light sifting; like garnishing a dessert. A pinch of cinnamon and finish with torn mint leaves.
Step 3: Serve ... This can be done on individual plates; or on a large platter. But, most importantly, go lightly on the dressing. ENJOY! this very simple but delicious salad. I prefer to serve this room temp. If you want, the fruit can be slightly chilled, but the dressing shouldn't be added until right before serving.
