Fennel, Beet and Orange Salad With Cumin Vinaigrette image

One of the things I love best about this refreshing salad is that it doesn't wilt, making it a a great choice for a potluck or a buffet. There's a nice contrast of textures going on, with the crunchy fennel, soft beets and juicy oranges. The dish has Moroccan overtones, with the combination of oranges and beets, and the cumin in the dressing.

FENNEL AND ORANGE SALAD



Fennel and Orange Salad image

The classic flavor combination of fennel and orange makes a wonderful winter salad.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
Coarse salt and ground pepper
5 navel oranges
3 to 4 fennel bulbs (about 2 pounds total), ends trimmed, quartered lengthwise, cored, and thinly sliced, crosswise, plus 1/4 cup roughly chopped fennel fronds (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar and oil; season with salt and pepper.
  • Using a sharp knife, slice off both ends of each orange. Following the curve of the fruit, cut away the peel and white pith. Halve orange from top to bottom; thinly slice crosswise. Transfer oranges, along with any juices that have accumulated on work surface, to bowl with dressing. Add fennel and, if desired, fronds. Toss to combine.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of fennel. Florence fennel, also known as finocchio, is the most common type used in salads. However, you can also use bronze fennel or wild fennel for a more intense flavor.
  • Slice the fennel thinly. This will help it to absorb the dressing more easily and make it more tender.
  • Use a sharp knife. A sharp knife will help you to get clean, even slices of fennel.
  • Add other vegetables. Fennel salad is a great way to use up other vegetables that you have on hand. Try adding shredded carrots, diced celery, or chopped bell peppers.
  • Use a citrus vinaigrette. The citrus flavor in the vinaigrette will help to brighten up the fennel salad and make it more refreshing.
  • Add some nuts or seeds. Nuts and seeds will add a crunchy texture and healthy fats to the salad.
  • Serve immediately. Fennel salad is best served immediately after it is made. However, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Fennel salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this versatile vegetable. With its slightly sweet and anise-like flavor, fennel is a great addition to salads, slaws, and other dishes. The orange balsamic vinaigrette in this recipe is the perfect complement to the fennel, adding a bright and tangy flavor. This salad is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or picnic.
