Mushroom And Fennel Salad With Truffle Oil Recipes

SHAVED FENNEL, MUSHROOM AND PARMESAN SALAD

Steps:

• Use a fork to whisk the lemon juice and olive oil in a small bowl. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice the mushrooms very thin. Put them in a serving bowl and toss with about 2 teaspoons of the olive oil mixture.
• Chop enough of the fennel fronds to make about 2 tablespoons (reserve the rest for another use). Trim the tops and bottoms from the fennel bulbs and halve the bulbs; slice off most of the core (leaving on a bit helps keep the bulb intact). Using the mandoline, shave the fennel bulbs almost paper thin from the root to the top end right over the mushrooms. Add the fennel fronds and the lemon zest; season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
• Shave the Parmesan over the salad using a vegetable peeler. Drizzle the remaining olive oil mixture around the edge of the bowl and toss everything gently but well to combine.

FENNEL AND MUSHROOM SALAD

Steps:

• Put the shallot and vinegar in a ramekin, and set aside to macerate.
• Cut the fingers off the fennel bulb, and discard, and then peel the bulb. Slice the bulb very thinly into rings. Toss with the mushroom slices, and parsley leaves. Dress the mixture with olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice, to taste. Serve with Parmesan curls on top.

PAUL BERTOLLI'S WHITE TRUFFLE SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the lemon juice and olive oil in a small bowl and season it to taste with salt and pepper.
• Have two large plates ready. Remove any tough outer leaves of the fennel. With a sharp knife, slice as thinly as possible enough of the heart to cover the bottom of the plates loosely. Transfer the fennel to a bowl and dress with a little of the olive oil and lemon mixture. Correct seasoning. Scatter the fennel loosely over the plates.
• Slice the mushrooms very thin, producing almost transparent cross-sections. Strew the mushrooms over the fennel, covering the fennel with an airy layer of mushrooms. With a hand-held cheese grater or knife blade, make shavings of Parmesan and put them on the other two layers in a similar fashion.
• Drizzle the remaining olive oil and lemon mixture over and around everything on the plates. With a cheese parer or truffle cutter, cut the truffle in very thin slices. Grind a little black pepper over each plate and serve.
