Featuring Fennel

FFeaturing Fennel
  

This week's farm share box brings us fennel, along with butterhead and romaine lettuce, mesclun, garlic scapes, scallions, sugarsnap peas, baby carrots, baby turnips and kale.  Fennel is a big favorite of mine, not only because of its pungent, distinctive flavor but also for its versatility. It can be served raw in a salad, as an interesting ingredient in soup (Fish Chowder with Fennel and Corn), grilled (Grilled Fennel/Chicken Salad), puréed as an ingredient in cream soups, boiled and added to mashed potatoes for a different twist, incorporated into a sauce for fish (Black Bass with Fennel-Orange Cream) or, my favorite, cut in long shreds and braised in wine and butter. These tasty "noodles" make a flavorful bed for a piece of grilled fish, or, in this recipe from the Stephencooks archives, a piece of pan-seared pork tenderloin.

Looks good Stephen. I love fennel. I make a fennel & celeriac slaw with a mustard seed vinaigrette that's delicious!

I'm still in the process of _learning_ to love fennel - but your recipe looks like a good bet to me:)

Hi, i've heard mention of such a dish as "Fennel & custard tart" which intreagues me, as it's seems a strange combination, yet i can imagine it working like many other weird culinary combos. have you tried any variation on this dish? If so any recepie pointers? thanks.

Stephen,

A+! We tried this last night with Wolf Pine Farm fennel and natural pork and a baked sweet potato on the side--FABULOUS! It is reminiscent of a dish my husband had in the Lake District of Wild Boar on a bed of briased Sauercraut atop a crisp white potato latke. Thanks so much for sharing. Annie
