Fennel and Radicchio Salad with Cranberries and Walnuts

A boldly flavored salad that goes well as a start to a rich meal.  I dress the salad with this orange gastrique, though I tend to add a little extra vinegar as the radicchio can stand up to it.  The amounts of the ingredients are approximate, and you can play with the ratios.

1 C dried cranberries
1 C walnuts, toasted
1 bunch of watercress, de-stemmed
1 bulb of fennel, thinly shaved
1 head of radicchio, torn

Mix everything, then dress with the gastrique right before serving.
