Our favourite fennel recipes
You can enjoy the bulb raw, shaved or finely sliced into salads; or steam, bake, braise or roast it until wonderfully soft and sweet. Keep the aromatic leafy tops for herbal teas, next-level garnishes or salad toppers, and don’t forget to chuck the celery-like stems into stocks or soups. Thanks to its aniseedy, dill-like taste, it’s so good with seafood, in salads, or tossed through pasta and risottos. It’s also great with chicken, pork or cheese. Not forgetting fennel seeds for those all-important pops of flavour.
