Pan-glazed Fennel, a simple side dish to prepare and perfect for accompanying meat and fish main dishes. I admit that here in the family, when I say “cooked fennel tonight,” everyone wrinkles their noses because I usually prepare them raw in a salad. However, when it comes to combining them with a glaze made with soy sauce, that’s when my daughters’ eyes, especially Giorgia’s, light up immensely. In short, she goes crazy for soy sauce, she puts it everywhere. Every time I prepare fish, no matter how it’s cooked, she must add her touch of soy sauce. This time, however, it’s about vegetables, specifically fennel, which cooked this way, I guarantee, have something fantastic. A combination of flavors that will also win over your palate. The recipe is very quick and doesn’t require many steps. While the fennel roasts in the pan, all you have to do is take care of the glaze, made with soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, and garlic powder. In my opinion, you’ve never tried them like this. Obviously, there’s no need to add salt because the soy sauce will make this side dish savory and very tasty. And now, let’s go to the kitchen together because the pan-glazed fennel will be ready in no time!
