For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the fennel seeds and grind to a powder. Adding this to your vinaigrette will have people asking what your secret is. When segmenting the oranges, be sure to remove all of the white pith, as it can be bitter. If you don't have a mandoline, use a very sharp knife to thinly slice the fennel bulb. The thinner the slices, the more tender it will be. Try adding toasted nuts such as pistachios or almonds for added crunch and nutty flavor

A vibrant dance of sweet and savory, this salad features juicy oranges, crisp fennel, and briny Kalamata olives, all brought together by a zesty orange vinaigrette. It's a Mediterranean escape in every bite.
