Overall, I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This salad is a great way to showcase fresh fennel. The anise flavor really shines through.

I didn't have any preserved lemon, so I used regular lemon juice instead. It was still good, but I think it would have been better with the preserved lemon.

This salad is a bit too salty for my taste.

I'm not a big fan of anchovies, but I loved them in this salad. They added a nice briny flavor.

This salad is a delightful burst of flavors and textures. The anchovies, fennel, and preserved lemon all play off of each other perfectly.
