White balsamic vinegar is sweeter than regular but still has an acidic bite. By simmering it until it's thick and syrup-like, it becomes concentrated in both tartness and sweetness. All you need to do is drizzle it over the salad -- no dressing required! If you are craving cheese, add some crumbled goat cheese over the top. It will add a creamy touch and is great with sweet strawberries and crunchy almonds.

Ingredients

• 1 cup white balsamic vinegar
• 1 large fennel bulb with fronds
• 3 ounces (about 4 cups) baby arugula
• 1 cup sliced almonds, toasted
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 pint strawberries, hulled and quartered lengthwise
