Fennel

This aromatic vegetable with its pale green, celery-like stems and feathery foliage, has a bulbous base and is entirely edible. Fennel is sweet and mild, and should not be confused with the licorice-flavored sweet anise.

Also available in organic, and baby size.

Chop stems and bulb and sauté, steam, braise, or add to soups. Enjoy raw in salads, with fresh vegetables or dips. The greenery can be snipped and used as garnish.

Good source of fiber, rich in vitamin C, and provides potassium. Fennel is also said to help with indigestion.

Choose fairly large bulbs with shiny sheath.

Refrigerate up to 4 days.
