Fennel in focus
FABULOUS FENNEL
A commonly misunderstood vegetable, fennel is often overlooked in the kitchen, but don’t underestimate the flavour power and vitality of this botanical beauty.
Grown for its bulbous leaf base, fennel is a key ingredient in many Greek and Italian dishes and, interestingly, has been used in natural remedies since ancient times.
A favourite for lovers of liquorice, fennel’s aromatic flavour can give any meal a tasty kick; while slow-roasting it can bring out the vegetable’s sweet and sumptuous undertones and make a perfect side dish.
