This week, we’re highlighting fennel, a member of the carrot family with a licorice-like flavor that can be eaten raw, cooked, or even juiced. Fennel is a good source of fiber, vitamin C, and potassium.
For Fennel 101, we love this article from Love & Lemons — it highlights the basics of using this potentially unfamiliar vegetable.
Some favorite recipes include these roasted chicken thighs with fennel and orange, baked haddock with roasted tomato and fennel, and for the vegetarians - lemony fennel lentil salad with parsley and this deliciously simple shaved fennel salad.
Let us know how you’ve been cooking your fennel!
