Salmon in a Fennel Crust with a Roasted Red Pepper-Blood Orange Vinaigrette

The flavors of fennel seeds, roasted peppers, and blood oranges somehow express the cooking of the wine country. If blood oranges are not available, regular oranges or pink grapefruit can be substituted. The recipe makes more vinaigrette than you’ll probably use—save it for another salad. It also make a delicious marinade for fish or chicken.
