Shaved Apple Salad

 

I’m always leery of using a mandoline slicer to make thin cuts. I just feel  more in control with a knife blade.

Each piece in the Swiss Diamond Knives collection is ice hardened to ensure that the knife will have a long lasting cutting edge.  See how easily I made a paper thin cut of this apple.

Shaved Apple Salad
You can make a meal out of a salad like this one. I enjoy a salad with the freshest ingredients.
A bit of cider vinegar brightens this dish and brings out the apple sweetness. Tangy mustard adds zing and helps bind the dressing.
Fennel and apple pair perfectly in this salad. Slightly salty pepitas round out the dish.
Pass me a fork, please!
