About Fennel sausage

Fennel sausage is a flavorful, seasoned meat product traditionally linked to Italian cuisine. It is made from ground pork, salt, pepper, and fennel seeds, which give it a distinctive sweet and aromatic taste. Some variations may include garlic, chili flakes, or wine for added complexity. The fennel seeds not only provide flavor but are also known for aiding digestion. While fennel sausage is a good source of protein and essential vitamins like B12, it is often high in fat—especially saturated fat—and sodium, which are important to monitor in a balanced diet. Moderate consumption as part of a varied meal can offer satisfying taste and nutritional benefits without excess. It is commonly enjoyed in pasta dishes, pizzas, or as a standalone grilled or cooked sausage.
