Salad of Fall Greens with Persimmons

3/4 cup fresh tangerine juice


1 Tablespoon grated tangerine zest


1/2 cup vegetable oil


1/4 cup walnut oil


2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar


1/2 teaspoon salt


1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon


pepper


1 head escarole (about 12 cups)


1 large bunch watercress, stems removed(about 6 cups)


1 (5 oz.) package mixed baby greens


2 persimmons, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced


1/2 cup hazlenuts, toasted, skin rubbed off, and coarsely chopped


In a heavy small saucepan over medium-high heat, boil the tangerine juice and zest until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 5 minutes.  Transfer to a medium bowl.  Whisk in the oils, vinegar, salt, and cinnamon and season to taste with pepper.  Place all the greens and half of the persimmon slices in a large bowl.  Add the dressing and toss to coat.  Divide among ten plates and top with the hazelnuts and the remaing persimmon slices.
