Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Greens

    Wash and dry the greenhouse crisp lettuce and arugula thoroughly. Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Fennel and Blood Orange

    Remove the fronds from the fennel bulb and slice the bulb thinly using a mandoline or sharp knife. Peel the blood oranges and segment them, removing any seeds. Add the sliced fennel and blood orange segments to the bowl with the greens.

  3. 3

    Add Goat Cheese

    Crumble the goat cheese over the salad, ensuring an even distribution.

Espresso Vinaigrette Preparation

    Mix the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the brewed and cooled espresso, olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined and emulsified.

Assembly

    Combine and Serve

    Drizzle the espresso vinaigrette over the salad just before serving. Toss gently to combine all the ingredients and serve immediately.
