1

Place all the ingredients (including one whole fragrant, fresh bay leaf) in a pint (16oz.) mason jar with a tight lid and shake vigorously until well emulsified. Will keep for two weeks in the refrigerator!

Salad Assembly
2

Toss all the salad ingredients together with the vinaigrette and serve family style or individually plated for four to six. Finish with a pinch of fennel pollen. Enjoy!

NOTES:
3

Fresh thyme leaves can be substituted with the smallest pinch of dried, whole thyme leaf crumbled between your fingers.

Check with the Durant nursery to get your own bay tree start for fresh leaves.

For less bitter radicchio, chop and soak in ice water for 3 hours or up to overnight, drain and spin dry. It really works!

Save a few small fennel fronds for garnish.
