Ingredients

2 teaspoons fennel seeds

3 tablespoons honey

3 tablespoons cider vinegar

Gray salt and freshly ground black pepper

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

2 to 3 romaine lettuce hearts, torn

2 to 3 medium heads radicchio, torn

1 large head cabbage, shredded

1 bunch watercress, trimmed of large stems

Directions

  1. Prepare the dressing by placing the fennel seeds in a small saute pan over low heat. Toast, tossing occasionally, about 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Crush the toasted seeds with the edge or a pan, in a mortar and pestle, or seal in a plastic bag and roll with a rolling pin.
  2. In a saucepan, place the honey, cider vinegar, salt and pepper, and toasted fennel seeds. Bring to a boil, stirring well. Remove from heat. Whisk in olive oil and season, to taste.
  3. Place the romaine, radicchio, cabbage, and watercress in a large serving bowl. Add warm dressing and toss well. Serve immediately.

At first, I thought this recipe was going to be too subdued for our tastes. Turns out it's great with sweet bbq foods, and gets better after being dressed for 10-15 minutes. One tip I can give is- I pretty much cut the recipe by more than 1/4 (just 2 of us! and still used 1/2 recipe dressing and it was perfect. <br />
