• Make the dressing: Put lemon juice, zest and garlic in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in olive oil. Set dressing aside for at least 10 minutes.
• Prepare the salad: Place sliced fennel and celery in a salad bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Discard garlic from the dressing, and whisk dressing. Pour over vegetables, and toss well. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• To serve, transfer salad to a platter, and surround with radicchio, if using. Use a vegetable peeler to shave Parmesan generously over the salad. Sprinkle with parsley and basil. Garnish with radishes, if desired.

FENNEL AND CELERY SALAD

Steps:

• Cut fennel bulbs in quarters lengthwise, discarding outer layer if it is exceedingly tough. Use a mandoline to slice quarters thinly; slice celery equally thin.
• Put sliced fennel and celery into a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper and toss gently to combine. Top with lots of freshly shaved Parmesan and chopped fennel fronds if you like.

Steps:

• Cut the fennel bulb in quarters, then lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Snip 2 tablespoons of the fronds, and set aside. Toss the fennel, 1 tablespoon of the fronds, the celery, the cucumber, and the onion together in a medium-sized salad bowl.
• Squeeze the lemon over the vegetables, and drizzle on the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and toss to coat. Serve, sprinkled with the remaining tablespoon of fennel fronds, and the pomegranate seeds.

FENNEL & CELERY SALAD

Steps:

• Very finely slice the fennel bulbs lengthways (a mandolin makes this easier). Cut the celery stalks into thin matchsticks. Scatter the fennel and celery on a large plate or platter, drizzle over the fruity extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice, then season. Scatter any fennel fronds and celery leaves over if you have them.

FENNEL, POMEGRANATE AND FETA SALAD

Steps:

• Mix together the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• Trim the fennel bulbs, reserving the fronds. Quarter the bulbs, and cut out and discard the central core. Finely slice the fennel lengthways, and toss it and the reserved fronds into the bowl containing the dressing.
• Peel the cucumber and cut in half lengthways. Scoop out the central seeds with a teaspoon and slice the remaining flesh into half-moon shapes. Add to the bowl of dressing.
• Add the sliced onion to the bowl. Add the herbs and crumble the feta in the bowl.
• Toss the salad and scatter the pomegranate seeds on top- don't add the seeds before tossing as they will leach out their crimson juices.
