February 16, 2012 Roasted Fennel
RECIPE
Serves 2
A CookTale
Harold McGee, who writes about the science of food and cooking, could explain why oven roasting slices of a Fennel Bulb so completely changes its character and flavor. All I know is that it evolves from an interesting vegetable, into a remarkably delicious one. On top of that it’s gorgeous.
INGREDIENTS
Fennel Bulb (cut into 3/4″ slices)
Kosher Salt & Black Pepper
2 TB of EVOO
Fennel fonds for garnish
METHOD
1. Heat the oven to 425 degrees.
2. Season the Fennel & douse it with the EVOO.
3. Place them in the oven for 35 to 45 minutes (depending on how charred you’d like it).
