Fennel’s licorice taste flavors several Sardinian dishes. It’s used as a vegetable (the bulb), as an herb (its willowy fronds), and as a spice (its seeds) and is rich in fiber and soluble vitamins such as A, B, and C. It’s also a good diuretic; therefore, it helps to keep the blood pressure low. This fennel salad recipe is perfect for an autumn or winter gathering, adding a light crunch and fresh citrus flavor to any meal.

2-3 oranges peeled
2 tbsp of craisins, optional
