Tips:
- Choose the right fennel: Select firm, heavy fennel bulbs with tightly packed layers. Avoid any bulbs that are bruised or have brown spots.
- Trim the fennel properly: Cut off the tough outer layer of the fennel bulb and remove any wilted or damaged leaves. Trim the base of the bulb and cut it into quarters or eighths, depending on the size.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe is versatile, so feel free to add other vegetables that you like. Some good options include celery, parsnips, turnips, or rutabagas.
- Season the vegetables well: Don't be afraid to season the vegetables generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out their natural flavors.
- Braise the vegetables slowly: Braising is a low and slow cooking method that allows the vegetables to soften and develop a rich flavor. Be patient and let the vegetables cook for at least 30 minutes, or until they are tender.
