I love the taste of fennel in my chicken soup. Raw fennel tastes like licorice, but it literally changes face when braised in this tart mix of flavors. Definitely the most original side dish you will serve this Pesach.

Ingredients (7)

Main ingredients

2 large fennel bulbs, tops and fronds removed and cut into 8 wedges each (take out the inner “cabbagy” core)
1 tablespoon Bartenura Extra-Virgin Olive Oil

X

Bartenura Olive Oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped or 2 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic

X

Gefen Frozen Crushed Garlic
1/2 cup freshly squeezed blood orange juice (regular OJ is fine too.)
1/2 cup vegetable broth
Tuscanini Sea Salt, to taste

X

Tuscanini Fine Sea Salt
freshly ground pepper, to taste

Start Cooking

Prepare the Fennel
