Arugula Salad With Caramelized Endive And Fennel Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together lemon zest and juice, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Add oil in a slow stream, whisking until combined. Stir in olives.
• Halve fennel lengthwise and remove core, then thinly slice crosswise using slicer.
• Just before serving, toss fennel, arugula, and endives with just enough vinaigrette to coat and salt and pepper to taste.

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.

Steps:

• Working over a medium bowl, cut out orange segments, then squeeze juice from membranes. To a jar, add 2 tablespoons juice, vinegar, mustard, and oil; season with salt and pepper. Shake to combine.
• Combine fennel and fronds, arugula, and orange segments in a bowl. Drizzle with dressing and toss to combine.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine fennel wedges, thyme, and 4 tablespoons oil in large bowl; toss to coat. Arrange fennel, cut side down, on large rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until fennel is tender and brown, turning once, about 40 minutes. Discard thyme sprigs. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Whisk vinegar, mustard, and 2 tablespoons oil in large bowl. Season dressing with salt and pepper. Add fennel, orange slices, and arugula. Toss to coat. Transfer salad to large shallow bowl.
• What to drink:
• To accompany the spicy, citrusy salad, pour a crisp white with mineral notes. The Kupelwieser 2008 Pinot Grigio Alto Adige ($15) would be perfect.

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.

Steps:

• Whisk first 3 ingredients in small bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in oil. Season dressing to taste with sea salt and pepper.
• Toss arugula, fennel, and olives in large bowl with dressing. Sprinkle cheese over.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss fennel, endives, rosemary, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Spread mixture in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, tossing occasionally, until fennel and endives are well browned, about 35 minutes. Discard rosemary.
• Transfer fennel mixture to a large serving bowl. Add vinegar, mustard, remaining tablespoon oil, the figs, and orange segments. Toss well to combine. Let cool to room temperature.
• Just before serving, toss fennel mixture with the arugula. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
