Foeniculum vulgare var. azoricum

Maybe just before bolted?

Fennel growing skills must be improving!

Wow. But how do you cook it to make it tasty ? Not a great fan of it.

💚💚💚

@charlotte I was always taught to cut out the middle. Less is more as such a strong aniseed taste!

Did fennel and sausage ragu again. Basil, rosemary and bay leaves also from garden.

Sausage and fennel Ragu calling! Think these are close to bolting.

Fennel and lemon risotto.

Oh yum. 😋

Yum!

If I'm honest this was the worst risotto I think I've cooked as in me failing to do the right things but it tasted ok.

There’s always next time and at least it tasted ok.

@brightcolours I have 5 fennel bulbs left! Might make sausage & fennel regu instead though!

Yum.

Is this Florence Fennel bolting or just weird?

It’s ready to harvest. Tastes better when it’s young
