Toasted Fennel Spice Rub
Made it up from other ideas. I like to make a spice mix to my own specifications without too much salt or none at all. Then add it as needed....
Sweet backbone to Mediterranean cooking
Fennel seeds are indispensable in Mediterranean cuisine. Great in Italian Sunday 'sauce' (tomato sauce) where you choose not to add meat, a great enhancer to steamed fish in parchment. I love to quickly toast the seeds in a skillet to bring out the anise flavor then crush the seeds with a mortar and pestle. When you get a waft of the smoky sweet aroma you'll want to use it everywhere.
