Shaved Fennel and Apple Salad with Gorgonzola

This is a shaved fennel, apple and gorgonzola salad. It's tossed with a white Balsamic vinaigrette for a piquant and refreshing dish. I'd eat it except for one problem.

I hate the taste of licorice. 

Apparently it's a trait I share in common with my siblings. Twizzlers = the devil.

As pretty as it is, as much as I want to love the idea of it and eat it... this is really food art rather than a meal for me.

But in the event you don't have problems with licorice, I'm told by friends I've made this dish for that it's quite delicious.
