How to Make Crisp Fennel, Apple, and Walnut Salad with Goat Cheese

1. Prepare Cucumber

Take your peeled, halved, seeded, and diced cucumber and sprinkle it with about half a teaspoon of salt. Place the cucumber in a colander set over a bowl and let it sit for about 15 minutes.

2. Make Vinaigrette

While the cucumber is draining, grab a large bowl and whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil and white wine vinegar until they're well combined.

3. Combine Vegetables

Once your cucumber has drained, gently pat it dry with a paper towel to remove any lingering moisture. Add the cucumber to the bowl with the vinaigrette, along with the diced fennel, apples, finely chopped red onion, and fresh tarragon. Toss these ingredients together until everything is evenly coated with the vinaigrette.

4. Add Lettuce and Walnuts

Next, add the chopped romaine lettuce and toasted walnuts to the bowl. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, then give everything a good toss to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.

5. Serve and Top with Goat Cheese

Finally, divide the salad among four plates and generously top each serving with the crumbled goat cheese. Serve immediately.
