Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, crisp romaine lettuce and fennel. Look for heads of romaine with tightly packed leaves and no signs of wilting. Fennel bulbs should be firm and white, with no brown spots.
- To thinly slice the fennel, use a mandoline or sharp knife. If using a knife, be careful to slice the fennel against the grain, or else it will be tough.
- The red wine vinaigrette is a key component of this salad. Be sure to use a good quality red wine vinegar, and adjust the amount of honey and Dijon mustard to taste.
- Toasted walnuts add a nice crunch to this salad. You can toast them in a toaster oven or on a skillet over medium heat, watching carefully so they don't burn.
- This salad can be served immediately, or you can let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld. If you let it sit, be sure to toss it again before serving.
Conclusion:
This romaine and fennel salad with red wine vinaigrette is a light, refreshing, and flavorful salad that is perfect for a summer meal. The combination of crisp romaine lettuce, fennel, walnuts, and red wine vinaigrette is sure to please everyone at your table.
