A Sicilian favorite tosses together these two ingredients for a simple, elegant salad. But, if you insist on lettuce, go for it. Just plop these sweet, floral, licorice-y flavors on top. You may even consider something bitter as the leafy green, such as arugula to balance the sweetness.
Just a hint of fennel and glistening flakes of kosher salt, liven up these simple whole wheat crackers, inspired by Heidi Swanson’s Olive Oil Crackers To make them crispy thin, use a pasta roller as she suggests, otherwise they are still tasty slightly thicker and cut into shapes or squares.
A simple scalloped potato dish is more inspired with a topping of buttery fennel bulb slices. Make this even more magical with a pinch of fennel powder or ground fennel seed. If you have fronds and stems on the fennel, just slice up whatever appears edible and sauté along. A little pinch of the fronds make a nice garnish, too.
Did you know that Guacamole could actually get better? The sharp, salty flavor of feta takes this dip to a new level. Queso fresco also works perfectly well instead.
Herb flecked ground beef, bison or turkey are wrapped around a small chunk of feta, making for a delightful little surprise in each bite. Flax meal serves as a quick & easy replacement of the typical bread crumbs and egg. If you do not have it handy ground oatmeal could work too.
