Fennel Soup with Zucchini Recipe

Adapted from Levanacooks, using Levana Nourishments Garden Vegetable

Fennel Soup is pure seduction.

Many Americans have yet to get turned on to fennel. Any chance I get to sneak in those veggies that are somewhat neglected in America, and beloved beyond, I am there: So for today, that will be Fennel! Fennel and anise seeds are a constant in many of our Moroccan dishes, both sweet and savory, and make our bread beautifully fragrant. It works its unseen magic and yields a silky texture and sweet – but not cloyingly sweet – flavor. Its caloric content is ideally low. A real nutritional bargain too!

We want to keep this fennel soup nice and pale (no colors), a sort of trompe l’oeuil Vichyssoise, so be sure you use yellow zucchini.

My Fennel soup is good year-round, as it is perfect served hot or chilled.
