Tomato And Fennel Seed Pickle Recipes

Steps:

• Core and thinly slice 2 fennel bulbs; chop some of the fronds. Peel the cloves from 1 garlic bulb and toss with the fennel and fronds, 1 quartered lemon, 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon each salt and sugar on a baking sheet. Roast in a 500 degrees F oven until golden, about 20 minutes. Toss in 1 pint grape tomatoes; roast until the tomatoes burst, 7 more minutes.

Steps:

• Toss 2 pounds tomatoes (cut into wedges), 2 thinly sliced fennel bulbs and 1/2 thinly sliced red onion with 1/3 cup olive oil and 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar. Season with 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, 1 teaspoon sugar and a generous amount of pepper. Let sit at least 30 minutes. Toss with 1 cup fresh parsley and 1/2 cup fennel fronds before serving.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil, and pour into a heatproof bowl. Mix with vinegars, sugar, salt, star anise, peppercorns, coriander seeds and chile, and stir until sugar is dissolved.
• Arrange prepped vegetables and fruit in a large jar or glass dish, and pour the vinegar mixture over them. (Depending on the size of the container, you may need to mix another batch of the vinegar mixture to cover them.) Let sit at room temperature until the liquid is slightly cooled, then transfer to the refrigerator for at least one hour, or overnight. Eat within the week.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, toss together fennel, tomatoes, wine, oil, thyme, and pinch of sugar. Season with salt and pepper. Bake, tossing occasionally, until fennel softens and pan juices thicken, 35 to 40 minutes.
