amanda

Equipment

  • - Mandoline Slicer: For efficiently slicing fennel and carrots into thin pieces, maintaining uniformity in size.

  • - Fine Mesh Strainer: Useful for rinsing vegetables thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit.

  • - Chef's Knife: An essential tool for chopping fennel and carrots into smaller pieces before shredding them.

  • - Cutting Board: Provides a stable surface for slicing, dicing, and preparing ingredients safely.

  • - Salad Spinner: Aids in drying the vegetables after washing, ensuring they are not too wet when mixed with dressing.

  • - Fine Mesh Colander: Similar to a strainer but with smaller holes for draining water from sliced fennel and carrots if needed.

  • - Food Processor (optional): Useful for quickly shredding vegetables into fine pieces without the need for a mandoline slicer, although this is optional depending on preference.

  • - Mixing Bowls: Essential for mixing ingredients together and serving the prepared salad dressing.

  • - Measuring Cups: For accurately measuring olive oil or other components of the dressing according to recipe requirements.

  • - Serving Utensils (e.g., Salad Spoons, Tongs): Handy for serving and tossing the salad without making a mess.
