How to cook fennel

Information for fennel in our free cooking ingredients collection.

Fennel

Fennel has long, green, feathery leaves on celery-like stems. Both stem and leaves have a delicate, anise-like flavor and may be eaten as a vegetable. Flowers produce seeds that may also be used as a flavoring. Raw fennel stems and leaves may be added to salads. Fennel also can be used to flavor cheese, sauces, mayonnaise, and bread. Fennel is a traditional seasoning for fish. Use fresh fennel whenever possible to maximize flavor. Overcooking can cause fennel to lose its flavor.
