Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

	http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=23 How to Enjoy Tips for Preparing Fennel: The three different parts of fennel-the base, stalks and leaves-can all be used in cooking. Cut the stalks away from the bulb at the place where they meet. If you are not going to be using the intact bulb in a recipe, then first cut it in half, remove the base, and then rinse it with water before proceeding to cut it further. Fennel can be cut in a variety of sizes and shapes, depending upon the recipe and your personal preference. The best way to slice it is to do so vertically through the bulb. If your recipe requires chunked, diced or julienned fennel, it is best to first remove the harder core that resides in the center before cutting it. The stalks of the fennel can be used for soups, stocks and stews, while the leaves can be used as an herb seasoning. A Few Quick Serving Ideas: Healthy sautéed fennel and onions make a wonderful side dish. Combine sliced fennel with avocados, and oranges for a delightful salad. Braised fennel is a wonderful complement to scallops. Next time you are looking for a new way to adorn your sandwiches, consider adding sliced fennel in addition to the traditional toppings of lettuce and tomato. Top thinly sliced fennel with plain yogurt and mint leaves. Fennel is a match made in Heaven when served with salmon. -----signature----- WOW: Nicawl, Nymfidora, Lyliiara of Silverhand/Alliance DAOC: Devon Cluster ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks Sneezyface!

	I'll try braising it next time. The one I ate only had a hint of the anise flavor, liked it. -----signature----- There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
