Rather than making food taste like licorice, though, fennel imparts a light, bright spring-like quality to foods. Plus, fennel is good for you]]> 2018-02-10 06:55:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kmehrae/HerbKiranMehrae/wish/230244490 growing tips kmehrae https://padlet.com/kmehrae/HerbKiranMehrae/wish/230244591
  • Transplant while still young because roots become long and tough. 
  • Water the growing fennel well in dry weather. 
  • The plant self-seeds freely, so dead-head if seeds are not needed. 
  •  Growing fennel plants become congested and exhausted after 3-4 years, and are then best replaced. 
  • Avoid growing fennel near dill. 
  • These two species cross-fertilize readily to produce useless hybrids.

The bluish-green leaves, called "fronds", are as feathery as dill leaves are. When Fennel is allowed to flower, it will produce yellow blooms. The plant will behave like a perennial where the winters are mild. In fact, only in its second year will it produce a lot of flowers and seed. ]]> 2018-02-16 07:11:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kmehrae/HerbKiranMehrae/wish/232235450 Cooking Tips kmehrae https://padlet.com/kmehrae/HerbKiranMehrae/wish/232236546 Baby (young) Fennel: wash, and cook whole, halved or quartered.
    Fully grown Fennel: Wash, trim bottom of bulb. Trim off the stalks. Cut into quarters for cooking with, or slice for use fresh.
    The leaves can be chopped and used as a fresh herb. Slice bulb thinly to use raw in salads.
    Fennel braises and roasts well. The stalks are a bit tougher to eat raw than the base, but they can be braised or steamed.
    Microwave cooking is particularly kind to Fennel. The Fennel will retain more of its colour and flavour.
    The green fronds can be used as decoration.]]>     2018-02-16 07:20:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kmehrae/HerbKiranMehrae/wish/232236546     Fennel milk kmehrae https://padlet.com/kmehrae/HerbKiranMehrae/wish/232551608 Ingredients
