2 Belgian endives (cut into 2-inch pieces)
1 small head radicchio (cut into 2-inch pieces)
1 small fennel bulb (shaved on a mandoline or thinly sliced with a knife)
1/2 cup Italian parsley leaves (lightly packed)

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the capers, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard and whisk together. Continue whisking and drizzle in the olive oil in a steady stream until emulsified. Whisk in 1/4 teaspoon of the salt.
Add the beans and tuna to the dressing, flaking the tuna into bite-size pieces with a fork as you add it to the bowl. Toss lightly to coat. Add the endive, radicchio, shaved fennel, parsley leaves, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to the tuna mixture. Using your hands, toss the salad together, bringing the dressing up from the bottom of the bowl until everything is coated evenly.
