Shaved Fennel, Radish, and Grapefruit Salad image

Yield Makes 8 generous servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons fennel seeds, lightly crushed
4 medium fennel bulbs (sometimes called anise; about 3 1/2 lb total), stalks cut off and discarded
1 lb radishes (about 1 1/2 lb total with greens), trimmed
4 pink or red grapefruits
1 medium garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Special Equipment
a Japanese Benriner or other adjustable-blade slicer

Steps:

Heat oil with fennel seeds in a small heavy saucepan over moderate heat until seeds are fragrant and pale golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let steep 2 hours.
While seeds are steeping, quarter fennel bulbs lengthwise and cut out and discard most of cores, leaving just enough core to keep quarters of fennel intact. Cut fennel lengthwise into paper-thin slices with slicer. Transfer to a large bowl.
Cut radishes crosswise into very thin slices (slightly thicker than fennel slices) with slicer and add to fennel in bowl.
Cut peel, including all white pith, from grapefruits with a small sharp knife. Working over a bowl, cut segments free from membranes and squeeze juice from membranes into bowl. Transfer segments to a cutting board, reserving juice in bowl, and coarsely chop, then add to fennel and radishes.
Pour fennel oil through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl. (Discard seeds.)
Mince garlic and mash to a paste with a pinch of salt using a large heavy knife, then transfer to another small bowl. Whisk in salt, pepper, fennel oil, and 5 tablespoons grapefruit juice, then pour over salad, tossing gently to coat.

Warm Shaved Fennel with Pink Grapefruit image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Time 17m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 fennel bulb
1 pink grapefruit
Extra-virgin olive oil
Salt
1/4 cup slivered cerignola or other big green olives
1/4 cup freshly squeezed pink grapefruit juice
1/4 cup picked fennel fronds

Steps:

Using a mandoline, slice the fennel into thin shavings.
Cut the bottom and top off of the grapefruit. Using a knife, cut the peel off of the sides, following the curve of the grapefruit and being careful to only cut away the peel and bitter pith. Hold the fruit in one hand over a bowl and cut the flesh of the grapefruit away from the membrane to release a wedge. Repeat until all the segments are released.
In a large saute pan over medium heat, coat with olive oil and add the fennel. Season with salt and saute until the fennel is warm and coated with the oil, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Toss in the grapefruit segments, olive slivers, and juice and sprinkle with the fennel fronds. Serve immediately.
