Time 2h50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 baguette loaf, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 head Bibb or butterhead lettuce, leaves torn
1 medium fennel bulb, thinly sliced
1/3 packed cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
1/3 packed cup mint leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • For the crostini: Place an oven rack in the lower 1/3 of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Arrange the bread slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until golden. In a small bowl, using a fork, mix the butter and cheese together until smooth.
  • For the salad: In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and oil until combined and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place the lettuce, fennel, basil, and mint in a salad bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well.
  • To serve: Spread the Parmesan butter on the toasted bread and serve alongside the salad.

This salad was a bit too simple for my taste. I think it would have been better with some additional toppings, like grilled chicken or bacon.

The dressing was a bit too oily for my taste, but the salad itself was delicious. I would definitely make it again, but I would use less oil in the dressing.

The crostini were a bit too hard for my taste, but the salad itself was delicious. I would definitely make it again, but I would use a different recipe for the crostini.

This salad was a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just because I used a different type of vinegar than the recipe called for. Otherwise, it was a good salad.

This salad was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought crouton instead of making my own crostini, but it was still delicious.
