White bean and pickled fennel salad with hazelnut crumb

Back to Home

HERE'S HOW WE MAKE IT

We start by finely slicing fennel and pickling overnight in a mixture of white wine vinegar, water, sugar and peppercorns, then simmer white beans until tender and mix with olive oil, salt and a little kick of dried chilli.  For the dressing, we blitz parsley, lemon juice, vinegar and olive oil, with a bit of Dijon mustard and honey. But what makes this salad truly special is the toasted sourdough and hazelnut pangrattato, (an Italian trick of using up stale bread by toasting it and turning into crunchy breadcrumbs, as a 'poor man's Parmesan'). It's a little like a savoury praline - so delicious!!
