Fennel
The fennel bulb contains virtually all of the usable meat. Smaller
fennel bulbs are more tender and less fibrous than larger bulbs. Store
fennel in a plastic bag, in the high-humidity crisper section of the
refrigerator for no more than 3 to 4 days. Fennel loses its flavor
quickly so it’s best to use it as soon as possible. Can be roasted,
used in soups, or chopped when raw in salads.
