Recipe looks great. Do you recommend fennel seed or ground fennel or either?

The recipes uses whole seeds, unless otherwise stated “whole” seeds is the default.

“Bropagus” has a nice ring to it. 🙃

I could read a whole book like this article (😏 i.e. cant wait for your new book!) this was the origin story I never knew existed about a plant I thought was ancient. I also don't know how I can continue to call it broccolini anymore, seeing as asparation is just so wild. It sorta reminds me of the veg called "morning glory" 😂. So many potential puns with both 😂

I should know better than to read your column when I’m hungry...both recipes sound amazing! Coincidentally, I was just the other day gazing longingly at broccolini, unable to rationalize the cost locally ($6 a bunch). I’m buying that book, and some broccolini.

That’s insanely expensive. It’s about $2.99 a bunch here. I’ve noticed the price of fruit and lemons to be expensive where I’m at.
