The Salmon with Fennel and Leek Recipe
Fennel bulbs are good fresh as well as stewed and fried. Their soft fragrant flesh gives dishes a sweetish slightly anisic smack. It goes perfectly well with fish and leek. Salmon that was cooked with fennel and leek and imbibed their spicy flavor will be appreciated by those who like their bit of fennel in a dish.
