Primary Benefits

  • Promotes healthy digestion when consumed
  • Aroma can be both calming and invigorating
  • May help promote healthy metabolic function circulation when taken internally

Cooking with Fennel

Essential oils are very potent compared to dry seasonings, spices, or other flavouring agents, so even the tiniest amount can add a serious blast of flavour to your dish. When using Fennel in cooking, it is best to use the toothpick method – dip the tip of a clean toothpick into the essential oil bottle and stir the toothpick into your ingredients for an authentic anise flavour! After you’ve stirred the toothpick around in the dish, do a taste test to see whether you want to add more of the oil or not.
