Oh my ... I loved this! Different and delicious. And very pretty. I used both green and purple frisee, and endive. Per Deb's suggestion, I added shavings of a hard Italian pecorino romano and really ... perfection. The lemon-y fennel dressing is just great with the bitter lettuce.

I was a little worried that the salad would be too bitter but even my husband -- not generally a fan of bitter lettuces other than arugula -- ate every last leaf.

This salad is a real find.

Crunchy, slightly bitter and aromatic. This definitely takes green salad a step further.
Very flexible as well. The minimum you need is both bitter greens and less bitter ones (say, lettuce and endives), or alternatively, celery. When you've got that, combine away!
