Celery, Apple and Fennel Slaw

Delightfully crunchy!

I prepared this when visiting my mother, and not all ingredient were on hand. No celery - nor cider vinegar for the dressing. Nonetheless it turned out very well, and is something I will prepare again.

A fresh fennel bulb is chopping into small pieces, and small pieces of apple (and celery if you have it) are combined, and dressed with a simple olive oil-vinegar (I substituted rice for cider) dressing.

As per suggestions on epicurious, I also added crasins and I allowed the salad to marinate for 2 hours before serving.

The salad had a mild anise flavor, but nice sweetness from the apple and the crasins. I will make this again.
