Gray mullet roe and radish salad
by:
As a variation, instead of the radish, we often serve the bottarga grated over a salad made with two large fennel bulbs, sliced thin, seasoned lightly and tossed with the lemon juice and half the olive oil. Then we deseed and quarter two tomatoes, again lightly season them, and arrange them in the center of each plate. We mix the fennel with a bunch of chives, cut into batons, and pile it on top, scatter the grated bottarga on top, and drizzle with the rest of the oil. Or sometimes we do it in exactly the same way, but with green beans instead of the fennel. Just blanch the beans for a minute or so in boiling water, then drain and refresh under cold running water.
