Chef’s Narrative
Fresh fennel is the star in this simple, delicious salad – its subtle, sweet licorice taste, feathery fronds and crunchy bulb add layers of texture and flavor. Vinaigrette can easily be doubled, store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days, bring to room temperature before using.
Recipe Substitutions
Pine nuts are great subs for the walnuts. If you prefer a milder cheese, sub goat cheese or feta crumbles for the Gorgonzola
