    Romaine and Fennel Salad


    Source of Recipe


    Rachael Ray

    List of Ingredients




    2 hearts of romaine, torn or rough cut
    1 large bulb of fennel, trimmed of fronds and tops
    1/4 red onion, peeled and thinly sliced
    Several sprigs flat-leaf parsley
    Balsamic vinegar
    Extra-virgin olive oil
    Coarse salt and black pepper
    Asiago or Parmigiano Reggiano, shaved for garnish

    Recipe



    Place chopped or torn romaine in a large salad bowl. Cut fennel bulb down the center, then again, quartering it. Remove the core with angled cuts on each quarter bulb. Thinly slice quarter bulbs across and add to salad bowl. Combine romaine and fennel with parsley sprigs and red onion. Place one fingertip over the top of balsamic vinegar to control the pour and splash a few tablespoons into the bowl. Drizzle the salad generously with extra-virgin olive oil and toss lightly to coat salad evenly with vinegar and oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and top salads with curls of Asiago or Parmigiano, created by shaving cheese with your knife.
