what to do with fennel?

[Maggot]

Meera Sodha's recipe for broccoli, fennel, and chickpea stew with a green chilli, garlic and, interestingly, orzo pasta is a bit fiddly, but lush.

Made this last night, and it was pretty good. Not really fiddly either, just lots of chopping.

I like adding the fronds to coleslaw for a change. As others on the thread have said, it makes a good celery substitute for soffrito/mirepoix.

Crush fennel seeds and put in bottle of vodka and leave for a day or two before drinking

Haven't made that in a while, thanks for the reminder.

There was a guy at university called Fennel Aurora. He had blue hair.
