If you belong to the category of people who have never bought fennel or endive, raise your hand 🙂
Personally, I rarely buy them as 1) I have a hard time finding them in the US or I probably do not pay attention, 2) organic endives are freaking expensive here and 3) I did not grow up eating fennel so I never think about them.
Well it is never too late to change!
Especially because this fresh recipe is so delicious that you will never forget this meal ever 🙂
