Fennel Pasta Fennel Pasta
I made some genovese-like fennel paste, and I was surprised at how good it was. I couldn't get domestic pine nuts, so I substituted with walnuts. Walnuts give this a good taste, too.Lightly mince the fennel before blending to make it easier to process. Aside from pasta, you can also use the paste with microwaved potatoes, stir-fried vegetables, fish, and meat dishes as well. I add garlic, since I love it, but if you don't like it, feel free to leave it out. I ran out of garlic, so I made it without it and it was still plenty delicious. Recipe by Usshi

Fettuccine with beef and fennel rose sauce Fettuccine with beef and fennel rose sauce
This is my spin on a classic pasta dish. I caramelized the ground beef to start, for extra flavour and to avoid any mushiness. I also added the fennel near the end of cooking, to maintain it's crunch. And, because the wife prefers creamy sauces, I added a splash of cream to turn the sauce rose. It was a hit.
