taste update.

everyone knows about my distain for fennel. it tastes like black licorice and tell me who would like that? last week i got a giant fennel bulb in my csa. not knowing what to do with it i just left it in the 'fridge. this week i got another one. in our newsletter the farmer told us to roast them and that they'll caramelize and taste sweet. i was very suspicious but i thought, why not just try it. i had nothing to lose. 

so tonight, i tried it. and it, my friends, was delicious. i'm in love with roasted fennel. it's so sweet and crispy with a bitter taste on the back of your tongue. it was great on my mushroom burger too. after dinner i sat there eating the ones that didn't make it onto that tiny burger. 

anyway, i have seen the light and it is roasted fennel. 

just chop some fenn up, drizzle olive oil, salt and pepp that bitch and roast on 400 for 20ish minutes. then eat straight or put on anything. 

i feel like i'm just starting to live. fennel, who would've thought?
