1. Make the dressing: In the work bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade, combine the garlic and anchovy fillets.
2. Pulse for 30 seconds, or until pureed.
3. Add the mayonnaise, scallions, parsley, vinegar, and tarragon.
4. Pulse several times until the mixture is creamy.
5. Season with salt and pepper.
6. Pour the dressing into a jar or other covered container and refrigerate until serving time.
7. Make the salad: Cut the romaine into 1/2-inch pieces.
8. Wash the romaine, watercress, and arugula thoroughly in several changes of water.
9. Spin them dry in a salad spinner or pat them dry with paper towels.
10. Place them into a large serving bowl, cover with a damp paper towel and refrigerate until ready to serve.
11. Preheat the oven to 400F.
12. Trim away the fronds and the hollow stalk of the fennel bulb and cut away the bottom.
13. Cut the fennel bulb into sixths, remove the center core, and coat the pieces with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
14. Roast on a baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes, or until tender.
15. When the fennel is cool enough to handle, chop it into 1/4-inch pieces.
16. Remove the bowl of greens from the refrigerator and add the fennel.
17. Add the carrot, cucumber, and cherry tomatoes.
18. Toss the salad with about 3/4 cup of the green goddess dressing.
