Whole Fennel Seeds | Sweet Aromatic Culinary Spice

Add a warm, sweet, licorice-like note to your pantry with whole fennel seeds.

Known botanically as Foeniculum vulgare, fennel “seeds” are technically the plant’s dried fruits. Their whole form helps preserve their distinctive aroma until you are ready to crush, grind, or steep them.

Use fennel seeds to add character to:

Lightly crush the seeds before use to release more of their aromatic flavor. Their balanced sweetness works well in both savory and sweet preparations.
