Shaving raw vegetables, either on a mandoline or with a very sharp knife, is an easy way to quickly transform them into a featherlike, elegant salad. The method works just as well with fibrous vegetables, like fennel, as it does with juicier ones, like cucumbers. You could also shave radishes, yellow beets, cauliflower, zucchini, asparagus, apple, or celery into the mix.
