Puntarelle Roman Style

One of the best salads ever. Fortunately I am able to get tons of this in Hong Kong, courtesy  of my friendly internet wholesaler who delivers it to my doorstep live and direct from Italy.

puntarelle, sliced into shreds 
red wine vinegar
best quality, rinsed salted anchovies
lots of ground pepper
EVOO
squeeze of lemon
  1. make sure as you slice the puntarelle to put into a bowl of ice water; the shreds will curl up like beautiful ribbons
  2. make vinaigrette, crushing the anchovy into bits but do not obliterate
  3. add lemon to taste, but black pepper like there's no tomorrow
