Julie Buiso’s tangelo beetroot salad with labne looks as good as it tastes, and is especially pretty if you are able to source the bright variegated and sunshine yellow beets.
Julie Buiso’s tangelo beetroot salad with labne looks as good as it tastes, and is especially pretty if you are able to source the bright variegated and sunshine yellow beets. If not, the deep crimson traditional beets, sliced wafer thin, served with carefully segmented orange tangelos, snow-white dollops of labne and a drizzle of good quality grass-gold extra virgin olive oil will almost look too good to eat – almost!

4 baby golden beetroot
4 baby Chioggia (striped) beetroot
1-2 tangelos
2 Tbsp pumpkin seeds

1-2 Tbsp dukkah, or toasted ground cumin
½ cup edible flowers
1 Tbsp sherry vinegar or lemon juice

Perhaps the juiciest of all citrus, the tangelo is a tasty treat that combines all the best features of a mandarin crossed with a grapefruit.
Easy to peel, tangy-sweet, juicy and bursting with flavour, tangelos are of course an excellent source of vitamin C.
At their best straight out of their skins, they also make fantastic juice and can be used in preserves, desserts, and baking.
And there’s a reason that 95% of New Zealand's tangelo crops are grown right here in Gisborne. It’s because we’re the citrus capital of our wonderful country, so you can be sure that our sun-ripened tangelos will be the tastiest you’ve ever eaten!
