Fennel Salad
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- Zest of 1 lemon
 - Juice of 1 lemon (~1/4 cup)
 - olive oil
 - salt
 - cracked pepper
 - 2 fennel bulbs, bottom trimmed
 - 1 tablespoon fresh mint, rough chopped
 - ½ cup grated or shaved parmesan cheese (optional)
 - 1 tablespoon fresh dill (optional)
 
Instructions
- In a measuring cup add the zest and lemon juice. Add olive oil, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust. Should be tangy and acidic, not too oily.
 - Shave the fennel paper thin — easiest with a mandoline even if you factor in the injuries. Large slices you may want to break or cut in half. Add to a large bowl.
 - Add the mint and and toss to distribute. If using, add the cheese and dill.
 - Re-mix the dressing and drizzle over the salad, tossing to coat.
