THE BEST ROASTED FENNEL
Fennel sometimes plays second fiddle to other vegetables, but it is the true star in this simple but impressive side dish. Roasting the fennel until tender and almost creamy mellows its usual licorice flavor and brings out a touch of natural sweetness. Even if you don't normally like fennel, give this delicious dish a try. You might be surprised.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F.
- Pick 2 tablespoons of the tender green fronds from the tops of the fennel bulbs and set aside. Cut the remaining top and bottom from each fennel bulb, then cut the bulb in half lengthwise through the core. Use the tip of the knife to cut an upside-down "V" on the bottom of each bulb to remove most of the core, leaving just enough so the bulb stays intact. Cut each half through the core into wedges, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Add the fennel bulb, thyme, garlic, olive oil, red pepper flakes and 3/4 teaspoon salt to a large bowl and toss until evenly coated. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet.
- Roast in the oven until the fennel is very tender and lightly browned in spots, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, top with the reserved fennel fronds and serve with the lemon wedges.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring, until the fat renders, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour off the fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the pan. Add the onion and fennel and cook until the fennel is soft, about 5 minutes. Crush the tomatoes into the pan with your hands, then pour in the juices from the can and bring to a simmer. Fill the empty can with 1/2 cup of the boiling water and add to the sauce. Stir in the cream and simmer while you cook the pasta.
- Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente. Drain and add to the sauce. Stir in the basil and 1/2 cup parmesan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, season with salt and toss.
- Oil a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Layer the pasta, mozzarella, fontina and the remaining 1/2 cup parmesan in the dish, alternating pasta and cheese. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Bake, uncovered, until browned and bubbly, about 15 minutes.

Steps:
- To prepare the fennel, cut off the upper stems close to the bulb and trim off the bottoms. If small bulbs are available, cut each trimmed bulb in half lengthwise. If small bulbs are not available, cut each lengthwise into quarters.
- As the fennel bulbs are trimmed and cut, drop them into a basin of cold water.
- Bring a large quantity of water to the boil in a saucepan and add salt to taste.
- Drain the fennel and add the pieces to the boiling water.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Let the fennnel cook about 10 minutes, until almost tender. Drain. Pat dry, using a clean linen towel or paper toweling. If the centers of each piece of fennel are tough or woody, carefully trim away and discard the tough part.
- Arrange the fennel pieces in one layer in a baking dish, cut-side down. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and the olive oil.
- Place the dish in the oven and bake 20 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Trim the stalks off the fennel, setting the green fronds to the side to later use for garnish, if desired. Trim the root ends to create a flat surface; there is no need to remove the core. Slice fennel into 1/4- to 1/3-inch slices and place on the baking sheet.
- Whisk together olive oil, vinegar, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Brush over the fennel slices.
- Roast in the preheated oven until fennel is soft and caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes, turning slices over halfway through. Remove to a serving platter and garnish with green fronds, if desired.

BAKED FENNEL WITH PARMESAN
A very simple but totally delicious dish. Fennel is baked with cream, creme fraiche and parmesan cheese. An ideal accompaniment to many tomato based italian dishes as the creaminess balances nicely with the tomato.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Cut the base off of the fennel bulbs, and cut a cone shape into the base to remove the core. You can see the core because it is whiter than the surrounding green. This is optional, but helps the fennel cook faster. Slice the fennel vertically (upright) into 1/4 inch thick slices.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fennel, and fry for about 5 minutes. Stir in the half-and-half and creme fraiche until well blended. Transfer to a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
- Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden brown and the fennel is tender enough to pierce with a fork.
