Salad and Assembly
Preheat oven to 350°. Toast hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until golden brown, 8–10 minutes. Let cool, then cut in two.
Chop anchovies and garlic on a cutting board. Sprinkle lightly with salt and mash to a paste with the side of a chef’s knife. Mix in a large bowl with oil and lemon juice; season dressing with salt and pepper. Add radicchio, endive, and Meyer lemon and toss to coat; taste and season with more salt and pepper as needed. Add orange rounds and half of hazelnuts; toss once to combine.
Spread half of preserved-lemon purée onto a large platter (save remaining purée and use as a sandwich spread or a dressing for roasted vegetables). Top with salad; scatter remaining hazelnuts.
