Fennel Anchovy And Olive Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife or a mandoline, slice fennel crosswise 1/8-inch thick. Place slices in a wide salad bowl, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Add olive oil, lemon juice and zest, and garlic. Toss everything together, coating the fennel well. Taste for salt and adjust. (This can be done up to 30 minutes ahead.)
• Remove and discard any wilted outer leaves of radicchio. Separate tender leaves, tearing large ones into smaller pieces.
• To finish the salad, quarter the eggs. Add radicchio to the salad bowl and sprinkle very lightly with salt. Toss together radicchio and fennel, coating everything well. Garnish with quartered eggs. (Yolks should have a moist center.) Top eggs with the anchovy fillets.

Steps:

• Remove peel and pith from the oranges using a sharp paring knife. Working over a bowl to catch the juice, carefully cut between membranes, to remove segments. Squeeze remaining membrane to extract juice, reserving 1 tablespoon.
• In a medium bowl, combine orange segments, fennel, fennel fronds, and olives; set aside.
• In a small bowl, whisk together reserved orange juice, vinegar, shallot, oil, salt, and pepper. Drizzle over salad, tossing gently to combine. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Whisk oil and vinegar in small bowl. Season dressing with salt and pepper.
• Combine mche, 1/2 cup fennel, 1/3 cup onion, and preserved lemon in large bowl. Toss with enough dressing to coat. Arrange on platter. Top with remaining fennel and onion, then anchovies. Drizzle with more dressing and serve.
• *QUICK PRESERVED LEMONS: Combine 1 thinly sliced lemon, 1/2 cup lemon juice, and 4 teaspoons coarse sea salt in small skillet. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered, until almost tender, about 10 minutes. Cool.
