I understand not everyone has truffle oil or truffled salt on hand, however, if you happen to be gifted or simply curious, this salad is a treat and one of my favorites to pair alongside heavier meals. (Fennel and celery can help with digestion, and also give a wonderful crunch that offers a medley of textures that is fun to explore!)

Crunchy Fennel Salad with Truffle Oil

• 1 cup celery, thinly sliced (I prefer using a mandolin for this recipe)

• 1 large green apple, julienned

• 1 cup fennel, thinly sliced

• 1 small cucumber, thinly sliced

• 1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

• 3 small radishes, thinly sliced

• 2 limes (zest and juiced)

• 2 Tbs White Truffle Oil

• 1/2 tsp sea salt (truffled sea salt adds to the truffle-y depth if you have on hand)

• 1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper

1. Gently toss all ingredients together until thoroughly combined.

2. Transfer to serving dishes and finish with extra grated cheese.

3. Enjoy!
