The dressing is a bit too vinegary for my taste. I think I'll try using less vinegar next time.

This salad is a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more herbs or spices next time.

I found the dressing to be a bit too oily. I think I'll try using less olive oil next time.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some fennel and watercress that were about to go bad, and this recipe was the perfect way to use them up.

Easy to make and packed with flavor. I especially liked the dressing, which was light and tangy.

I've never been a huge fan of fennel, but this salad changed my mind. The anise flavor was subtle and well-balanced by the other ingredients.
