About Fennel bulb
Fennel bulb, a staple in Mediterranean cuisine, is prized for its crisp texture and subtly sweet, licorice-like flavor. Native to the Mediterranean region, fennel has been cultivated for thousands of years and is widely used in Italian, Indian, and French recipes. Nutritionally, fennel bulb is a powerhouse packed with vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. These nutrients support healthy digestion, boost immunity, and promote heart health. It’s also low in calories, making it a smart choice for weight management. The bulb contains antioxidants like flavonoids and polyphenols, which combat inflammation and protect against oxidative stress. While fennel is generally very healthy, moderation is key for individuals prone to allergies or sensitive to its high natural anethole content, which gives its distinctive taste. Oven-roasted, sautéed, or enjoyed raw in salads, fennel bulb is a versatile ingredient with excellent health benefits.
