Fennel and Grapefruit Salad with Honey and Mint

To reach the fullest expression of itself, the tangy, floral, bitter grapefruit wants to be more savory than sweet.

Raw and Roasted Carrots and Fennel with Feta and Pistachios

This salad is also terrific at room temperature and is easily doubled, making it great for feeding a crowd

Fennel Rubbed Sheet Pan Turkey with Cider Vinegar Gravy

This turkey is dry-brined and roasted on a sheet pan, per usual. Don’t let the word fennel scare you—it’s mild (though there is an option to increase the amount here), but gives just enough to make this turkey feel special.

Spicy Seafood Pasta with Fennel

At its core, this is a light breezy pasta made with caramelized fennel and juicy, fresh tomatoes—already wonderful—but yes, there is also seafood.

Clam Chowder with Corn and Bacon

This clam chowder is more of the brothy, soupy, light and ethereal variety, ideal for the end of summer and beginning of fall, but would happily take you into the winter months, too.

Very Crunchy Salad feat. Fennel, Apples, and Pecans

A salad is a non-negotiable for me, especially with all the rich, buttery dishes on the table. This bitter, crunchy, bright one with honeyed pecans and fennel seed will get eaten suspiciously fast for a salad at Thanksgiving.

Tomatoes Dressed in Toasted Fennel and Anchovy

Fennel Salad with Lemon and Anchovy

A salad that is definitely slaw in spirit, this can be further salad-ified by adding in some arugula or serving the whole thing over a bed of torn romaine, iceberg, or escarole.

Fresh Tomato and Fennel Pasta

The goal for the sauce is to have bits of tomato floating in a juicy, almost jammy sauce for the pasta to finish cooking in. Fennel seed, when used here in conjunction with crushed red pepper flakes and garlic, has the ability to turn this sauce into something vaguely resembling sausage.

Farro with Toasted Fennel, Lemon, and Basil

This accidentally vegan springy farro gets better as it sits, making it an ideal candidate to have on hand for lunch for the week.

Parsley Salad With Fennel and Horseradish

This salad is an obvious nod to the Seder plate, including both parsley (bitter herbs) and fresh horseradish, except it’s less ceremonial and more just a very delicious salad. I love, love parsley and think a well-seasoned bowl of it is something that most tables can benefit from, especially if thos

Pork Noodle Soup with Broccoli Rabe and Fennel

This soup is one of the most comforting dishes around. It’s easy and quick to make, and perfect to have on hand during a particularly cold week.
