Shaved Fennel and Celery Root Salad

Serves:

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 bulb fennel, washed, stalk and fronds trimmed away
  • 2 celeriac bulbs (celery root), washed and peeled
  • 1 red Bartlett pear, ripened, halved and seeds scooped out
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • ¼ bunch flat Parsley leaves, washed and minced
  • ¼ cup Fairway Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Fairway Sea Salt
  • Fairway Tellicherry Pepper
  • 7 ounces baby greens or arugula
  • Parmigiano-Reggiano, shaved for garnish
  • pignoli, toasted for garnish

DIRECTIONS

  1. Shave the fennel, celeriac and Bartlett pear gossamer-thin either by hand with a sharp chef's knife, or with your mandolin and place in a large salad bowl.
  2. Prepare the dressing by combining the lemon juice, parsley, olive oil and adding salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl.
  3. Toss the shaved ingredients with the dressing and check to ensure it’s seasoned properly. If not, make any necessary adjustments to your liking.
  4. On a platter or individual dinner plates, arrange the baby greens or arugula, and place a mound of the dressed, shaved ingredients on top.
  5. Finish with shavings of Parmigiano-Reggiano and toasted pignoli.
