Ingredients

2 pounds fennel bulbs

3 to 4 oranges

1/4 cup good olive oil

2 lemons, juiced

Kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 ounces arugula

Directions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

Delish! A delightfully light and bright salad. I made it as written the first time and loved it. The tartness of the dressing is balanced with the sweetness of the oranges. The second time I made it, I cut the oranges slices into quarters (which adds a bit more sweetness), and put the dressing on the oranges and fennel to "marinade" for a bit before putting it on the arugula. Also, pomegranate seeds, or some chopped cranberries, add a nice color pop along with the fennel fronds.
