Exotic for many, fennel is nothing more than a spice that brings enormous benefits.

In addition, it can be added when stewing fish or beef.

If lightly blanched, fennel stalks can be used as a stand-alone garnish.

In addition, the seeds of this plant are also edible. They are usually added to fish and vegetable soups, which gives them a piquant taste and delicate aroma. Finally, try making a marinade for vegetables, sauerkraut or pickles using fennel seeds – you will be pleasantly surprised.
