What is Fennel? I don't believe I have ever had it until today. The Kitchen Servery at the Wellness Complex was serving up Sausage and Fennel soup. The broth was tomato based and the sausage was spicy. It was excellent!
So to answer my own question what is fennel....it is a bulbous vegetable with a tall, wispy, fronded top that looks rather like dill. The fronds can be used in salads, but the main attraction of fennel is the bulb itself. It's very firm and crunchy, and it tastes a bit like licorice and anise.
There are an abundance of soup recipes using fennel on the internet I will be sure to venture there!
