Ingredients

|---|---|---|
| 1 | medium | Red onion; thinly sliced |
| 3 | tablespoons | White wine vinegar |
| 1 | tablespoon | Dijon-style mustard |
| 2 | teaspoons | Cracked black peppercorns |
| ½ | teaspoon | Salt |

Directions
In a bowl, combine the sliced onion with ice water to cover and let soak for 30 to 45 minutes. Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette. In a glass bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, pepper, salt, and cayenne until thoroughly blended. Drizzle the olive oil over in a thin stream, whisking constantly until all the oil is incorporated. Drain the soaking onions, pat them dry with paper towels, and separate into rings. In a large bowl, toss the tangerines and the watercress together gently. Drizzle over enough vinaigrette just to coat and toss again. Mound some salad onto the plate and scatter a few onion rings over the top. This recipe yields 6 servings.
