I can literally make it in 2 minutes, and it's marvelous.

I´ve been making this for years now, I love it, my friends love it. In fact I´m on to my second mandolin now. So THANK YOU!

Debjani.

ps. I add lemon zest and truffle oil to the dressing

This is one of your posts that I read when it originally appeared. I didn't make it at the time, but the idea stuck in my head. Really stuck… for three years. It's one of those recipes that my little brain couldn't make sense of. I think it's the rawness of the whole thing. I love shaved fennel, yes, and sliced mushrooms. But… It just didn't sound cohesive. Too much sharpness. Too cold. I don't know…

But you, Molly, have a perfect knack for curating recipes, so I have this trust in your suggestions. And FINALLY, this week, I made this salad exactly as you described. Not just once, but three times in a single week. I'm in love. I wouldn't change a thing. And it just doesn't surprise me.

I loved the freshness (lemon!) and saltiness and crispiness of this salad. I must confess it was only one extra-large serving for me.

Oh, and I wanted to confirm for anyone else wondering – a nice ripe Bartlett pear worked well, too, if Asian pears are not available.

Didn’t have mushrooms, or pears either, so I left them out. Still yummy! peace — Lisa)
