This salad is a zesty first course or a fine lunch. A range of sharp flavors - garlic, anchovy, lemon and briny olives - contrast beautifully with the anise-scented fennel bulb. Dress the salad just before serving, so the sliced fennel stays crisp. It may seem silly to smash and pit your own green olives, but they look better and taste meatier that way. In any case, please don't cut pitted olives crosswise into little slices.

Steps:
- Make the dressing: Put chopped anchovies, lemon juice and zest, preserved lemon (if using) and garlic in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk in olive oil.
- Prepare the salad: Place sliced fennel in a salad bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Add olives and dressing, and toss to coat.
- Transfer to serving platter or individual plates. Surround with halved eggs (draped with more anchovy fillets, if desired), and scatter parsley leaves over the top.
