FENNEL

Originally from the Mediterranean, this beautiful white bulb with bright, feathery greens is a member of the carrot family. It is crunchy and refreshing with a mild anise or black licorice flavor, which becomes less strong after cooking. Fennel is a great source of potassium and vitamin C and can strengthen hair and rid the body of toxins.
