Boil fennel with stems on low heat for 30 mins and drink its water when slightly warm it is very good for any kind of headaches like migraine,cluster headache also relax you from fatigue, stress and bad moods : )) must try out friends!

thank you
😂😂😂😂
Sounds delicious
Wow thanks
Yep! Fennel anti-inflammatory tea! Some just use dried fennel seeds and strain but fresh is always best and packed full of more anti-oxidants, nutrients, etc.
Clearly spoken, to the point, and informative. Thank you!
Thanks for this informative video! I grew up on a farm in the South, and so I thought I knew practically everything about every vegetable -- but fennel wasn't around when I was a kid, and yesterday I saw it in the supermarket and decided that I should finally figure out what one does with it.
I grow fennel in the garden...the blossoms are like sugared licorice. Love it!
How can we grow it??
😂Holly Cannoli, You are precious Dani! Well yes, you are precious, and also concise , clear, knowledgeable. And you can turn anything into an easy clean and delicious meal.
This was fabulous. You were engaging, knowledgeable, and (potentially most important for this platform) you got straight to it and told me what I needed to know. (I'll also absolutely try that salad!). Thanks so much!
Great feedback!
What I like most about your videos is they are short, to the point and I can watch it anytime as I don't have to invest lot of my time and I get all info I need..good deal..👍
Thank you so much! This was so helpful and you are so professional I love it. I like that you stay focused without any banter or random chatter.
2:18 What do you mean there is not much you can do with the stalk? The stalks are perfectly edible!
You can cut them diagonally about 1/4 inch thick and saute the stalks in some olive oil with other vegetables.
You could grill them too, or simply cut them real thin and add them to a salad.
Agreed. I cut them and roast with the bulb slices. Lovely and delicious. Plus no waste.
Thank you for sharing. I didn’t know anything about them.
You can use it to make a pesto with the ferny part.
I've done all of the above too, and sometimes ave the tops in the freezer along with other veggies and use it for veggie broth when my container is full. No waste and the most delicious broth no extra charge!
I make a root veggie dish with fennel, I chunk up sweet potato, purple sweet potatoes parsnips, carrots, onion, yukon gold potatoes, japanese yams, that are so so good, also chunk up some sweet apples like fuji apples and chunk up your fennel bulb, then make a sauce to drizzle over the top which is 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, 1/2 cup pure maple syrup, and 1/2 cup a nice oil such as avacoda oil or a grape seed oil, or a vegetable oil works also wisk all together and drizzle over the top and gently toss through and bake covered for 30 minutes and uncover to continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, I even gently fry some smoked sausage and chunk that up and toss it in and bake it all together and oh my what a very tasty dish. A must try.P.S. chunk up two fennel bulbs, its the best flavor ever. Bake it in a cake dish or a roaster pan with a lid. Whoever gives this a try, Hope you enjoy it.( I usually find the Japanese Yams in the organic section at you grocery store.)
Always check the base of the bulbs before purchasing from stores, as sometimes the base is not complete, but has gaps in it.
These can sometimes hide “nasties” inside the layers as they can be quite wide gaps.
Try roasting with toms and peppers with chicken....very tasty....great vids.
I grew my first fennel this year. Glad you made and shared this info!
Pastor Leonard Williams CAYA Awesome!
After all my years of cooking I have never worked with fennel, this is super informative, very appreciated :).
This is super helpful! I've been needing to swap ip my diet for medical reasons and fennel was something I've known I like to eat but had no clue how to work with! It'll be way less intimidating now!
I have been following you for over 10 years and TO THIS DAY if I don’t know how to prepare, store, clean, or cut produce, I come directly to your channel❤ I honestly won’t even try google because I know Dani can tell me exactly how to do it 😊
🙏
Thanks for this video, Dani! I've been wanting to try fennel, but never knew what to do with it until now!
Nice work, short and to the point. From never heard of it to no questions.
Thanks for this 101. I've always admired fennel from a distance, but never tried it personally. Now I will give it a try, and look forward to next week's soup recipe.
Yes.. definitely try it. It's so good!
😂 I’m the same way, I saw it at the markets really cheap the other day.
Wow, your videos are great. You speak clear and easy to follow. Fabulous teacher! Thank you for your videos, I love them!
Dani, what a fresh delightful instructor you are❗
I picked up a fennel bulb the other day and am salivating to try out your salad❗
Your channel is my new go-to for accessible, succinct, enthusiastically bright education and demonstrations nutrition arts❗ Thank you.
I used the stalks of the fennel like celery in a celery soup and it worked well
You are a good teacher - thanks!
Thank YOU!
Bonnie Kuhn When I was a kid, we ate this raw like candy!! Its awesome if you like licorice!! aweesomw
My favorite food. I have been living on this salad for months now since discovering this video. Prior to this, i had a lifelong love of greek salad. This is better. If i could choose one food forever it would be this. Imagine greek salad with extra sweet, and more garlic. And you don't even slightly miss the cheese. Damn this salad!!!
Thank you for the explanation. I have never cooked with our used fresh fennel before and a stock was included in my Fresh Farm delivery. I love the last salad you suggested with the olive oil, clementine, olive oil and lemon juice. I've got those!! TY
I've never tried fennel before, but it sounds intrresting. I'm gonna give it a try. I enjoy your videos. Thanks for making them!
Thank you for this video. I can't believe I am 67 years old and have never eating fresh fennel. What have I been waiting for? I love fresh fruits and veggies and I would definitely eat that salad you made. I do love fennel seeds. I use them my homemade turkey breakfast sausage recipe and I have been thinking about growing fennel in my garden. I see fresh fennel in my local farmers market all the time so now I'm going to have to buy some and try making the salad.
I tried it tonight, it was absolutely delicious!!! Thank you Dani, you're always the best!!
Sow fast.
Hi Dani, Thanks for making this video. I bought the ingredients early this morning and when I came home I made the salad. It was AWESOME!
I love your fennel salad, one more yummy way to use fennels in my garden. Thanks.
Thanks for trying and sharing!
Fennel salad with oranges sounds so good. I'm trying it now!
+Johnnie Weber Aweosme.... enjoy it!
I've always wanted to try fennel, now I feel brave enough to do it! Thank you!
+Deb Reneau Awesome. Enjoy it.
Hey Dani, thanks for this video, actually all your videos. Been wanting to try fennel forever. Now I know what to do and how to eat. Cheers! That salad looked awesome too. Gonna give it a try tonight. Thx again!
Tigggzz Anytime;)
I just discovered fennel today; fresh from a farm. I LOVED IT! Ate it all (bulb and stem) like a carrot.
So delicious! Now a new 'Go-to' veggie in the produce department!
Great recipe; I look forward to making that salad!
I love to hear that!!!
The stalks can be added and used to make stock/broth. Just toss in a bag with other veggie scraps in freezer until have enough and ready to make stock/broth, can be stir fried, etc. They are perfectly edible although best cooked until tender rather than eating raw due to woody. Can chop up thin or shred and freeze in small portions to add a bit to stews and soups also.
This was really helpful. I've never used Fennel in my cooking. Thank you.
Thanks so much! I have never cooked with Fennel. Thanks for the tips!
Anytime, Bonnie!
Thank you for a detailed preparation video. Yours was the first of several I searched that actually showed the fennel should be washed. Very informative.
I love your 101 videos and still come back to them for a refresher. Thanks for having posted these.
I roast it with squash and is quite a popular ingredient on thanksgiving
Wow! I’ve never had the guts to try fennel before. I had it minus the orange and olives, as I didn’t have any.
It was amazing.
But I’ll wait till tomorrow morning to see what sort of night I have after this.
I have many food intolerances and MCAS so lemons are high in histamine. So here’s hoping.
Thank you gif something so simple and delicious.
I had my 1st fennel bulb and did not know what to do with it, so made your lovely salad, thanks !
I juiced fennel today with apple, its nice
I use fennel in my pasta sauce and I love it.
I just found out this Ingredient 101 series (and your channel) and I'm loving it! It's so informative to learn about unusual ingredients like fennel and rutabaga. Thank you so much 😀
Thaisa :)
If the stalks of fennel are missing at the store it's usually because they've wilted because it sat there for too long. And don't throw them away, if they're fresh just cut them in wheels and they add a nice crunch to salads, almost like fennel-tasting croûtons.
Yes, the stalks are great to use. I work in fine dining; I have seen them used by our chef as a fennel marmalade, or cut up and pickled. The marmalade was great with lamb.
@@schnook11 OOOH! I didn't know and haven't thought about pickling the stalks! Thanks!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this video!!! I rely on videos like this to educate me on new vegetables!!!
After watching this video, I think I'll probably be adding fennel to my next stew, and maybe salad.
What a refreshing video! I'm gonna try that salad! Thank you!
your videos are the best! you are so informative!
This video was extremely helpfull! Thank you!
I ordered a fennel salad in Rome once out of curiosity and what I got was what Dani demonstrated.
Nice salad idea! Very clear instructions and relevant information. Thank you.
Thank you, looks delicious! 😋😋😋
I love fennel so much it was a nice surprise I tried it with cucumbers and red.onion with the same flavors u did but also I add lemon zest Yummy!
Thank you Dani, you teach so simple. I love it.
Thank you for covering everything I needed to know! Great tutorial!
Great video so informative. Couldn't need more than this.
I'm part of a food coop where you get "vegetables of the week" Fennel was one of them and I had no idea what to do with it so thank you for sharing. I think I know all that I need to know now. Bon apatite!
That's so great to hear! I'm glad it was helpful :)

Thanks! I saw and here fennel but never try that but if I can make salad with it yes I'm in!
If you ever visit Croatia, we have a candy that tastes and smells just like fennel. You should definitely try it. It is Bronhi Original by Kraš 🥰
blanch the fennel in boiling salted water for a few minutes. drain. get a frying pan....add some olive oil and garlic, add the fennel to the pan. season with salt and pepper. then add a handful of sugar and a tablespoon of white wine vinegar. keep cooking until the sugar and vinegar almost becomes a syrup. then your fennel is ready. this recips is Italian sweet and sour fennel. goes great with grilled sea bass.
You bet. That's from Abruzzo. Finnochio ala Chieti.
bill ding I'm from Lombardia, but everything from Abruzzo is delicious
mmmmm I will try
Great salad Dani. Love your vids, and keep them coming. I'm a fan.

+Loui Gaspar Enjoy it!
Thanks for sharing 👍
VERY good. Just made it. My new favorite. Thanks so much!!! (didn't actually had regular olive oil, but had Enzo's Table Garlic Olive oil and oh, it's SO good!). :)
Informative. ( And with seasoned informed Knife work How I ~ gauge experience)
You can use the fronds and the stalks, the whole thing can be used and eaten! Just cut them all up and put them in your dish or use in salad, stir fry etc . . . but use the lot!
nice video, I was waiting to see the part about storing these.
Thank you soooo much!
TY for posting. I learned something and will try to use it. ;-)
Thanks so much for this video very helpful 🙂
this was great thanks
can anybody explain fennel vs anise they look exactly the same it’s some what confusing
I found out it grows wild on my homestead so I guess I could add it to my dinner table.
Did you add it to your dinner table
Fennel comes from an anise plant it is an anise plant but fennel grows from it ... if you find it in the stores it will say anise at least in nor cal 🤷🏽♀️ love the detail a out how to prepare them tho ! The brown spots won’t matter if you replanting while I grow the roots I find I end up peeling the putter layer anyways when the sprouts start to grow from the scraps .
thanks! making a dish with corn, fennel & gnocchi, with a heavy cream sauce and topped with Grana Padano cheese.
good video. I learned a lot.
;)
