Steps:
- Make the vinaigrette: Using a sharp paring knife, peel 2 oranges, following the curve of the fruit; cut between membranes to remove whole segments. Place in a small bowl; set aside. Juice remaining orange into a separate small bowl or large glass measuring cup; whisk in lemon juice, vinegar, and salt. Season with pepper; set aside.
- In a small skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp and browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to drain on paper towels; let cool, and finely crumble.
- In a large serving bowl, combine fennel, mushrooms, onion, and spinach. Add reserved orange segments and vinaigrette, and toss to combine. Divide among serving plates, and sprinkle each with crumbled bacon.

GUEST CONTRIBUTOR
This is the salad, my dad, Mario, came up with for the big sister-cities dinner that Solari's hosted for the visiting dignitaries from Sestri Levante. The combination of the sweet oranges, crunchy fennel, and salty olives makes for a zesty palate-cleanser. And because the salad can be prepared in advance and then tossed at the last minute, it's a terrific side dish for a dinner party of any size, from four to forty guests. Use only the bulb of the fennel, and core and quarter it before slicing. For the oranges, make sure to remove most of their white pith, as it can be bitter. You can squeeze the two teaspoons of juice needed for the dressing from one of the oranges before cutting it up. The dressing can be made a day ahead and kept in the fridge; just be sure to take it out at least a half hour before serving, and give it a good stir before using. This recipe is excerpted from Death al Fresco: A Sally Solari Mystery.

Steps:
- 1 Mix the mustard, pepper, sugar, and vinegar together in a bowl until smooth and the sugar has dissolved. Slowly drizzle the olive oil into the bowl, using a wire whisk to incorporate it into the other ingredients. (Don't beat it too hard, or the oil can become bitter.) Once smooth, finish by whisking in the orange juice. Add more juice or a little water, if needed to thin to your desired consistency. 2 Toss all the salad ingredients in a large bowl, then drizzle on the dressing and toss again. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
