Background

Many Italians & especially Sicilians like to end a meal with sliced raw fennel, believing that this crisp vegetable will aid digestion.  Also known as sweet anise, it has a licorice like flavor and a crunchy texture.  Fennel paired with orange and a tangy vinaigrette, as in this recipe, makes a delightfully exotic salad!
