Fennel, Frisée, and Escarole Salad

This elegant fennel, frisée and escarole salad is a masterclass in balancing textures and flavours. The natural bitterness of the escarole and curly frisée provides a sophisticated base, which is beautifully offset by the aromatic, aniseed notes of thinly shaved fennel. It is a light and vibrant choice that works particularly well as a palate-cleansing course during a heavy meal or as a fresh accompaniment to roasted meats.

As a nutritious vegetarian dish, this salad relies on high-quality ingredients to shine. The simple citrus dressing, made with fresh lemon juice and extra-virgin olive oil, cuts through the richness of the salty Parmigiano-Reggiano shavings. Prepared in just a few minutes, it is an effortless way to bring a touch of seasonal Italian-inspired bistro cooking to your home dinner table.
