Shaved Fennel Mushroom And Parmesan Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Put the shallot and vinegar in a ramekin, and set aside to macerate.
• Cut the fingers off the fennel bulb, and discard, and then peel the bulb. Slice the bulb very thinly into rings. Toss with the mushroom slices, and parsley leaves. Dress the mixture with olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice, to taste. Serve with Parmesan curls on top.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the arugula, oranges and fennel. Add the olive oil and lemon juice and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a salad bowl, combine the lemon juice with the salt and pepper and whisk in the olive oil.
• Using a sharp knife or the slicing attachment on a food processor, slice the fennel bulbs wafer-thin, cutting from the base to the tip to make fanlike slices. Place the fennel in the lemon vinaigrette and toss.
• Tear the radicchio leaves into bite-size pieces and toss with the fennel. Divide between 4 salad plates. Then, using a vegetable peeler, shave the Parmesan cheese into thin sheets, sprinkle on each plate and serve.

Steps:

• Trim the leaves and most of the stems from the fennel. Slice the bulbs very thin and put in a salad bowl.
• Rinse and dry the mushrooms and slice thin. Add to the salad bowl. Add the cheese and season with pepper.
• Beat the vinegar and oil together until well blended, pour over the salad and toss gently. Serve as a first course.

Steps:

• Squeeze 1 tablespoon of lemon juice into serving bowl and whisk with oil.
• Trim and wash fennel, removing top. Wash and thinly slice bulb end to make 1 1/2 cups. Stir into dressing.
• Wash, trim and dry mushrooms. Slice thinly and add to dressing.
• Season with freshly ground black pepper; arrange on two salad plates.
• Thinly slice Parmigiano to make 1/4 cup, and sprinkle on top of each salad.

Steps:

• Pare the artichokes down to their hearts and scoop out the chokes with a spoon, dropping them into water acidulated with the juice of 1 of the lemons.
• Cut off the feathery tops of the fennel at the base of their stalks and remove the outer layer of the bulbs. Slice the bulbs very thin with a mandolin or a very sharp knife. Remove the artichoke hearts from the water and slice them very thin the same way.
• Assemble the salad in layers on a large platter or on individual salad plates. First make a layer of the fennel slices. Squeeze lemon juice evenly over the fennel and drizzle with salt and pepper. Then make a layer of the artichoke hearts, also slice very thin. Squeeze more lemon juice over them, drizzle evenly with another third of the oils, and season with salt and pepper. Cut thin shavings of the Parmesan with cheese slicer or a vegetable peeler and arrange them on top of the artichoke slices. Scatter the parsley leaves over the cheese, season with salt and pepper, squeeze more lemon juice over, and drizzle evenly with the rest of the oils. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place bread on one side of a rimmed baking sheet and walnuts on the other side (they cook at different rates). Drizzle bread with 3 Tbsp. oil; season with salt. Toss, squeezing bread with your hands to help it absorb as much oil as possible, until evenly coated. Bake until walnuts are golden brown and croutons are deeply browned and very crisp, 8-10 minutes for walnuts, 12-15 minutes for croutons. Let cool, then coarsely chop walnuts.
• Meanwhile, combine vinegar, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a medium bowl. Let sit 10 minutes to let garlic mellow and flavor the vinegar.
• Whisk 3 Tbsp. oil into vinegar mixture, then add croutons and chopped walnuts. Season crouton mixture with some salt and toss to coat and let croutons soften slightly; set aside.
• Remove stalks and fronds from fennel bulbs. Remove fronds from stalks and coarsely chop; thinly slice stalks. Place in a large bowl. Cut fennel bulbs in half and thinly slice on a mandoline (if you have one; if not, practice your knife skills). Add to same bowl along with mint. Zest lemon half over salad, then squeeze in juice. Season with salt and toss to combine.
• Divide reserved crouton mixture among plates and top with half of the Parmesan. Arrange fennel salad over; top with remaining Parmesan and drizzle with oil.

Steps:

• Wash and trim fennel bulbs- cut away feathery tops and root end.
• Using a vegetable slicer or mandolin, slice the fennel as thinly as possible and scatter over a plate or platter.
• Drizzle with 2 tbl of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Shave mushrooms into paper thin slices and scatter over fennel.
• Season with more salt and pepper, a squeeze of lemon juice and the remaining olive oil.
• With a cheese slicer or vegetable peeler, shave about 30 thin slivers of parmesan on top of the fennel and mushrooms.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine the lemon juice and olive oil in a small bowl. (Preferably, this salad should be prepared right before serving.) Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Using a mandoline or a sharp, thin-bladed knife, slice the fennel as thin as possible. Place in a bowl. Toss with 2 tablespoons of the lemon and olive oil mixture.
• Scatter the fennel loosely over part of a serving platter. Using the mandoline or knife, slice the mushrooms in thin, almost transparent cross sections. Strew the mushrooms over the fennel pieces. Using a potato peeler or knife blade, make shavings of Parmesan. Scatter them over the mushrooms. Drizzle the remaining lemon and oil over the layers. Grind additional pepper over the top. Serve on a platter, leaving room for the vegetable salads below.

Steps:

• Whisk together oil, lemon juice, and mustard and season with salt and pepper.
• Toss dressing with fennel bulb and radishes and adjust seasoning if necessary. Top with Parmesan and fennel fronds.
