Fennel Finocchio

Tender perennial grown as an annual. If you have never had fennel bulb, you are missing a treat. It can be eaten raw, used to flavor soups, pasta, and saut�ed dishes, or even deep-fried. Feathery leaves are attractive in the garden and are an excellent fresh garnish to fish, chicken, tomatoes, and sauces. Seed can also be harvested as a spice.
