Organic Fennel - Bunch - Australian
Fresh Certified Organic Fennel Bulb - Whole
Portion size: various available
Fennel is a plant with aromatic leaves, stalk, and bulb whose flavor is similar to anise or tarragon, although it is actually from the carrot family.
Like celery, the entire fennel plant is edible and lends itself to a wide variety of cooking applications. In fact, this mildly licorice-flavored plant is a member of the parsley family. Lastly, we can't ignore the health benefits of fennel. Just one cup of fennel contains almost 20 percent of your recommended daily value of vitamin C. You'll also find plenty of iron, fiber, and potassium.
