There are many ways to use fennel seeds in your cooking. They are perfect for seasoning pork and fish dishes. The pleasant aniseed flavor of the grains means we can successfully add them to home baking. It's a good idea to use the grains for stews and various types of silage. You can also prepare an infusion from the seeds. It is enough to crush a teaspoon of beans and pour them over a cup of hot water. Leave this mixture covered for about 15 minutes. After this time, the tea is ready to drink.
Dill is widely used in French and Italian cuisine, in fish sauces and in combination with mayonnaise. It is used to roast pork and sausages.
In England, dill is an inseparable spice of fish dishes. It is also added to bread, cakes and sweets.
