FENNEL AND CELERY SALAD WITH LEMON AND PARMESAN



Fennel and Celery Salad With Lemon and Parmesan image

This crisp, lemony salad of raw fennel and celery (you could add thinly sliced celery root to the salad as well) makes a refreshing start to a meal, garnished with radishes and slightly bitter Treviso or radicchio leaves. It could also be a light meal on its own. Don't slice the vegetables paper-thin; you want the salad to have some crunch. You may prepare the vegetables up to an hour in advance and keep refrigerated, but don't dress the salad more than 10 minutes before serving.

FENNEL AND CELERY SALAD



Fennel and Celery Salad image

Though the textures of fennel and celery are similar, their flavors are so wildly different that the combination is striking.

CELERY, FENNEL, AND APPLES SALAD WITH DUNGENESS CRAB



Celery, Fennel, and Apples Salad With Dungeness Crab image

From the SF Cronical. I made it for Christmas dinner. It was very good. I think the curry made it! Serve it in a martini glass for an elegant touch.

Provided by HelenG

Categories     Crab

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 -8 ounces dungeness crabmeat
2 -3 stalks celery
1/2 small fennel bulb
2 tablespoons red onions, diced small
1/4 teaspoon thai yellow curry paste (see Note)
mild extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons prepared mayonnaise
5 -6 teaspoons meyer lemon juice
kosher salt
pepper, to taste
1 small firm sweet apple (like Braeburn, Jonagold or Fuji)
1 1/2 cups packed romaine lettuce, cut into chiffonade
1 lemon, zest of
2 -3 tablespoons tender mixed herbs (flat-leaf parsley, chive, chervil)
6 slices meyer lemons (half-moons)

Steps:

  • Pick through crab and remove any shell; if needed, rinse crab and squeeze dry. Refrigerate crab until ready to plate.
  • Lightly peel the outside of the celery stalks to remove stringy portion. Cut the celery into paper-thin slices (a mandoline is best for this). You should have 1 cup. Trim fronds from fennel bulb, cut bulb in half lengthwise and cut out most of the solid core, leaving enough in place near the root end to hold fennel together. Shave fennel very thinly, too, so it is almost feathery, enough to make about 1 cup.
  • Taste diced red onion; if very pungent, soak in cold water for about 15 minutes. Drain well, blot off excess moisture and combine with the celery and fennel. Cover with a damp towel and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Warm curry paste and 1/2 teaspoon olive oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until curry paste looks grainy and becomes aromatic, about 15 seconds. In a small bowl, combine curry mixture, mayonnaise, 4 teaspoons Meyer lemon juice and a couple grinds of pepper; season with salt to taste.
  • When ready to serve, cut apple into small dice and add to celery and fennel. Toss just enough curried dressing with the celery-fennel-apple salad to lightly coat.
  • Whisk remaining 1-2 teaspoons Meyer lemon juice with 1-2 teaspoons olive oil, season to taste with salt and pepper. When ready to serve, dress lettuce with just enough vinaigrette to lightly coat.
  • Divide ingredients among 6 standard-size martini glasses, layering the lettuce, celery-fennel-apple salad and crab. Garnish crab with sprinkle of lemon zest and a fluff of mixed herbs. Serve with a lemon half-moon.

BLACK QUINOA, FENNEL AND CELERY SALAD



Black Quinoa, Fennel and Celery Salad image

This salad was a big surprise. It is so simple. I began with a bulb of fennel and some celery that I had on hand in the refrigerator, the remains of a bag of black quinoa, and fresh herbs from my garden, thinking that I would need to add some unexpected ingredients to achieve something interesting. But the contrasts of textures and the crisp, clean flavors of the fennel and celery in a lemony dressing made for a salad that I can't resist. Slice the fennel and celery as thin as you can.
