Just-out-of-the-oven bacon and a warm miso dressing gently wilt the spinach in this hearty salad. Shaved fennel, carrots and red onions add crunch and an extra boost of vegetables.

- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Lay the bacon in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the crispy, 12 to 13 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a cutting board and chop; set aside. Carefully pour the bacon fat into a small heatproof bowl and measure 2 tablespoons of the fat into a small saucepan. Discard any remaining bacon fat or reserve for another use.
- Meanwhile, soak the onion in a medium bowl of cold water for 15 minutes, then drain and transfer to a large bowl. Add the spinach, carrots and sliced fennel and let sit at room temperature.
- Add the ginger and garlic to the saucepan with the bacon fat and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the miso and cook, whisking, until smooth and just warm. Add the vinegar, honey and sesame oil and cook, whisking frequently, until just simmering and smooth, about 2 minutes.
- Add the bacon to the bowl with the spinach then pour in the warm dressing. Toss gently until the spinach just begins to wilt. Transfer the salad to a large serving bowl and garnish with the fennel fronds and sesame seeds.
