Ingredients
- 1 large Fennel bulb
- 2 Apples (preferably Honeycrisp or Fuji)
- 2 ears Fresh corn
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Remove the stalks and fronds from the fennel bulb, setting aside a few fronds for garnish if desired. Slice the fennel bulb in half lengthwise and remove the core. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline, thinly shave the fennel into delicate slices. Place in a large salad bowl.
Step 2
Cut the apples into thin matchstick slices or use a julienne tool. Leave the skin on for added color and texture if desired. Add the apples to the salad bowl with the fennel.
Step 3
Shuck the corn and remove the kernels by standing the ear upright on a cutting board and running a sharp knife down each side. Add the raw kernels to the salad bowl.
Step 4
Chop the parsley finely and sprinkle it over the salad mixture.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper until emulsified. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Step 6
Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine, making sure everything is evenly coated.
Step 7
If using, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top of the salad for a touch of creaminess and tang.
Step 8
Garnish with reserved fennel fronds if desired and serve immediately for maximum freshness.
