  11-07-2020 19:59
  
  If you like a mild anise flavor, more than likely you will love this easy-to-prepare salad. Fresh fennel combines crisp texture with scrumptious licorice notes. It makes a welcome counterpoint to thinly sliced smoked salmon.
  Of course, you can serve this dish with cocktails (a summertime gin & tonic comes to mind), but it can also be a dinner entree if just serving two. Heat up a baguette to accompany it.
