About

“I love fennel, either raw or cooked, and sometimes I eat it as a digestive. When buying your fennel, be sure to check the outer layer – it should be shiny, fresh and not too tough. This dish can be eaten either with bread or on its own as a starter, or served as an accompaniment to a main course – fish or meat.”
