How to Make It
In a large bowl, whisk the olive oil with the lemon juice and season generously with salt and pepper. Add the shaved fennel and chopped tarragon and toss well.
In a small bowl, stir the tapenade into the fromage blanc. Spread a thin layer of tapenade cream in the center of each plate. Mound the fennel salad on top and garnish with the chopped fennel fronds and fennel pollen. Serve right away.
