Arugulafennelandorangesalad Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together the honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper; slowly add the olive oil while continuing to whisk.
• Place the arugula in the bottom of a salad bowl; scatter the orange segments, fennel slices, and olives over the arugula; drizzle the dressing over the salad to serve.

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:

• Using a sharp knife, peel the oranges, removing the bitter white pith; slice crosswise 1/4 inch thick.
• In a bowl, whisk the oil and vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Add the fennel, scallions and arugula and toss.
• Add the oranges. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Cut the fronds from the fennel bulbs and reserve some of the feathery leaves for later. Cut each fennel bulb in half and remove the cores with a sharp knife.
• Fit a food processor with the thinnest slicing blade. Cut the fennel bulbs into wedges and place horizontally into the feed tube. Process in batches. Peel each orange, remove the pith with a knife, and slice. Set aside.
• For the dressing: Whisk together the oil, juice, 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper in a small bowl. Place the fennel slices, oranges slices and arugula in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss together. Sprinkle with salt and add some fennel fronds for decoration.

Steps:

• Prepare fennel - using only the white bulb, shave thin slices on a mandolin or with a very sharp knife. Set aside.
• Prepare pecorino-romano cheese - finely grated cheese does NOT have enough flavor "punch", so buy your cheese in bulk and create larger pieces, such as match-stick size or larger shavings.
• On 4 cold plates, arrange arugula. Top with orange sections, shaved fennel and pieces of pecorino-romano cheese.
• Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar or balsamic "glaze" (see note below). Finish with a grinding of fresh black pepper and serve.
• NOTE: You can find balsamic "glaze" in gourmet or Italian stores. It is a thicker, more concentrated balsamic vinegar.

Steps:

• Whisk minced shallots, olive oil and lemon juice in medium bowl to blend. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper.
• Cut all peel and white pith from oranges. Using small sharp knife, cut between membranes to release segments. Combine arugula, fennel and onion in large bowl. Toss with enough dressing to coat. Add orange segments; toss to combine. Season salad to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

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:

• Remove the heavy stems from the arugula and place the leaves in a salad bowl. Add the fennel and orange segments and toss together.
• Beat the orange juice and mustard together. Beat in the oil and pour the dressing over the salad. Season with pepper and toss.
