About Organic Fennel Seeds
Fennel Seed has a delicate flavour, light and sweet, similar to anise. Use of Fennel has a long history, dating back to the Chinese and Hindus who used it as a cure for snake bites. Fennel was hung over doors in the Middle Ages to ward off evil sprits.
Fennel has always been considered an aid to digestion, and many people still drink Fennel tea. The seed is often used with fish dishes. It can be used in a curing mix for salmon or bluefish. Some cultures add it to cheese. Good Italian sausage absolutely requires fennel. Ground Fennel adds a mysterious element to a marinara or tomato sauce, which will go with any type of pasta. Try toasting the seeds to accentuate their flavour. Goes well with fish and is used in some curry powder blends. Adds an authentic Italian flavour to meatballs.
Customer reviews
There are some good cooking suggestions in the description although there are rather too many mentions of meat/fish for my taste. This is a good spice to add to vegetarian dishes too though and I love that I can buy in small or large amounts depending on how much I want to use at a particular time.
