Chef notes

The beauty of this salad is in its simplicity. Each ingredient has the chance to show off its full flavor and shine through.

Ingredients

  • 4 fennel bulbs
  • 1 head celery
  • 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 3/4 cup shaved Parmigiano Reggiano
  • 3 lemons, juiced
  • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt, to taste

Preparation

1.

Split the fennel bulbs in half and remove the cores. Thinly slice them (about 1/8-inch thick) on a mandolin or with a knife.

2.

Break apart the head of celery into stalks. Remove the leaves and set aside. Chop the celery leaves.

3.

Peel the outer stalks of celery and slice on a bias about 1/8-inch thick.

4.

Put the fennel and celery in a mixing bowl. Add the nuts, cheese, lemon juice and olive oil. Toss in the celery leaves and mix everything together. Season to taste with salt.
