Ingredients
- 2 cups torn sourdough
- 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp olive oil
- 3/4 tsp salt, divided
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1 fennel bulb
- 1 large granny smith apple, cored and cheeks cut into four pieces
- 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 small garlic clove
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp Dijon
- 2 tsp honey
- 1 cup arugula
- 1/4 cup Shaved parmesan
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Tear big pieces of sourdough bread. Toss the bread with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, garlic powder, pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Spread them out on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and crisp, about 12-15 minutes. Keep an eye on them, they burn easily. When the croutons are almost done toasting, move them to one side of the pan and add the walnuts, toast for 2-3 minutes and remove everything from the oven. Let them both cool completely before adding them to the fennel and apple salad.
- Cut off the stems of the fennel. Reserve the dark green fronds. Finely chop them. Slice the fennel in half lengthwise. Remove the core. Use a mandolin or very sharp knife to shave the fennel and apples. Squeeze a little bit of fresh lemon juice over them to prevent them from turning brown.
- Whisk white wine vinegar, garlic, lemon juice, dijon, honey, and 1/4 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in remaining 1/4 cup olive oil while whisking the dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Set aside a handful of croutons, walnuts, and parmesan for garnish. Toss the apples, fennel, arugula, walnuts, and parmesan together. Drizzle with a 1/4 of the the dressing. Toss. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange the salad on a platter. Scatter the reserved croutons, parmesan, and walnuts on top. Drizzle with as much dressing as you'd like. Sprinkle with reserves fennel fronds.
