Fennel Salad with Cumin Citrus Dressing

[Guest guest]

Every few weeks or so, I'll randomly pick something, usually produce,

that I've either never cooked with, or haven't used in a long time.

This week, it was fennel. I do love the fresh flavor of it, and

wanted to use it in its raw state.

 

I wanted to do a salad and contrast some interesting flavors, and

this salad was born. The cumin citrus dressing is lovely with the

fennel, but would be great on just about any salad. The arugula and

watercress add a nice bitter flavor, and contrast well with the

sweetness of the dressing. View the finished recipe at

1 large bulb fennel, white part only, sliced thinly

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced or diced

Combine juices, zest, oil, cumin, and pepper, and whisk well. Set

aside. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl, toss with

dressing, and serve.
