How to prepare the Fennel Flatbread
Clean the fennel by removing most of the stems, outer parts, and the harder base. Wash them under running water.
Using a mandoline or slicer, cut the fennel into very thin slices.
Prepare the batter. Pour the water into a bowl. Add a pinch of salt and gradually add the flour while stirring with a whisk to avoid lumps.
Add the grated parmesan, 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and the chopped rosemary. Mix well to obtain a smooth and fluid batter.
Pour the batter into the bowl with the fennel, and using 2 spoons, mix to combine them with the batter.
Pour the mixture into an oiled rectangular baking pan, mine measures 8.7 x 11 inches. Level with a spatula into a thin layer.
Sprinkle the surface with some cornmeal and finally a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Bake the Crispy Fennel Flatbread in a preheated oven at 375°F (static mode) for 30 minutes.
