Segment grapefruit
Using a sharp paring knife, cut ends from grapefruit then cut away peel and pith, beginning at the top and following the curves of the fruit. Working over a medium bowl to catch the juice, carefully cut between membranes to remove segments. -
Cut blood orange
Cut off ends from blood orange then cut away peel and pith, beginning at the top and following the curves of the fruit. Cut remaining fruit crosswise into rounds. -
Arrange salad
Roughly chop pistachios. Remove parsley leaves from stems. Remove end from escarole then tear into bite sized pieces and arrange on a platter along with parsley leaves, citrus and pistachios. -
Scatter tuna and onion
Open tuna and remove from oil. Flake tuna over the salad. Reserving the vinegar, remove onions and scatter over the salad. -
Drizzle on dressing
Add mustard and 3 tablespoons oil to the vinegar, season with salt and whisk to combine. Drizzle over salad to serve. Enjoy!
