Grapefruit and Pickled Fennel Salad

YUM!

 

I had an excellent salad at Duckfat in Portland, ME last weekend and wanted to make it myself.

 

Theirs had spinach as a base instead of a spring mix, candied pecans instead of walnuts, their grapefruit was more mild than this insane kind we have, and I didn't have any basil so said "what the heck" and put some Parmesan on top because Parmesan and fennel like each other.

 

I quick pickled some fennel for it this morning by bringing some white vinegar, salt, peppercorns, and a smidge of sugar to a boil and then pouring over sliced fennel.
