Arugula Fennel Salad Food

FENNEL-ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• Quarter, core and thinly slice 1 large fennel bulb; chop 1/3 cup of the fronds. Combine in a large bowl with 6 thinly sliced celery stalks and 2 cups baby arugula. Toss with 3 tablespoons each olive oil and lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest, and salt and pepper to taste.

ARUGULA-FENNEL SALAD

Steps:

• Make the dressing by whisking the olive oil, salt, lemon zest, and lemon juice together in a small bowl; set aside. Place the arugula leaves into a large salad bowl. Sprinkle the fennel, pine nuts, grape tomatoes, and Parmesan cheese over top. Toss with the lemon dressing immediately before serving.

ARUGULA AND FENNEL SALAD

Steps:

• Trim the fennel bulb and reserve the fronds. Cut the bulb in half and remove the tough inner core. Using a sharp knife or a mandolin cut the fennel into very thin slices and put them into a large bowl. Cut the onion into very thin slices and add them to the bowl. Add the arugula to the bowl and give it a good toss. Pour in the olive oil and lemon juice, season it with salt and pepper, and toss it again to coat all the ingredients; put the salad onto a large platter. Using a vegetable peeler, shave thin pieces of the Parmigiano-Reggiano and scatter them over the salad. Garnish with the reserved fennel fronds.

ARUGULA, FENNEL AND ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife, peel the oranges, removing the bitter white pith; slice crosswise 1/4 inch thick.
• In a bowl, whisk the oil and vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Add the fennel, scallions and arugula and toss.
• Add the oranges. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

SHAVED FENNEL AND ARUGULA SALAD

ARUGULA SALAD WITH FENNEL, ORANGES AND PECORINO ROMANO

Steps:

• Prepare fennel - using only the white bulb, shave thin slices on a mandolin or with a very sharp knife. Set aside.
• Prepare pecorino-romano cheese - finely grated cheese does NOT have enough flavor "punch", so buy your cheese in bulk and create larger pieces, such as match-stick size or larger shavings.
• On 4 cold plates, arrange arugula. Top with orange sections, shaved fennel and pieces of pecorino-romano cheese.
• Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar or balsamic "glaze" (see note below). Finish with a grinding of fresh black pepper and serve.
• NOTE: You can find balsamic "glaze" in gourmet or Italian stores. It is a thicker, more concentrated balsamic vinegar.
