Recipe

Ingredients

  1. 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
  2. 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  3. 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  4. 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  5. 1 garlic clove, minced
  6. 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  7. Salt and freshly ground pepper
  8. 10 ounces mâche or other baby greens (16 loosely packed cups)
  9. 1/2 pound fresh goat cheese

Directions

  1. In a small skillet, toast the fennel seeds over moderately high heat until fragrant. Transfer the seeds to a spice grinder and let cool completely; grind to a powder.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the ground fennel with the vinegar, lemon juice, mustard and garlic. Whisk in the oil; season with salt and pepper. Add the mâche and toss gently. Scatter the goat cheese on top and serve.
