Orange-Fool Napoleons
- 4 medium navel oranges (2 to 2 1/4 pounds), zest of 1orange grated and reserved
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon orange-flower water
- 1/4 cup shelled raw pistachios
- Cut off about 1 inch from both ends of all 4 oranges; reserve the ends.
- Stand 1 orange cut-side down on a cutting board.
- Working from top to bottom, cut away the peel and pith.
- Cut the orange into 3 rounds, each about 3/4-inch-thick, transferring the rounds to a medium bowl as you work.
- Repeat with the remaining oranges.
- Refrigerate the slices until needed.
- Squeeze the juice from the reserved orange ends into a small saucepan.
- Add the orange zest, honey and any remaining juice from your cutting board, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Boil, swirling the pot occasionally, until syrupy, about 6 minutes.
- Toward the end, the surface will be covered with big brownish bubbles.
- You should have about 1/4 cup of syrup.
- Let cool to room temperature, about 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a small skillet over medium heat, add the pistachios and cook, tossing frequently until fragrant and toasted, about 4 minutes.
- Let cool, then chop.
- Whisk together the yogurt, half the syrup and the orange-blossom water in a medium bowl.
- In each of 4 shallow bowls, layer 3 orange slices with 1 tablespoon of the yogurt mixture, beginning with an orange slice and ending with yogurt.
