Guest guest Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Hello, I made a recipe last weekend that called for fennel. I used it because it was in a SCD cookbook, but I tried looking it up on the legal list and can't find it. Perhaps it is listed under a different name?? Anyway, just wanting to be sure it is legal. Thank you so much for your help! Cathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Hi, Cathy, I noticed a while ago that lots of spices are left off of the legal/illegal list. I would assume a spice was legal unless it specifically says it is not. Ground fennel and fennel tea are fine. Whole seeds might be a problem. mom to -12 SCD 4/23/04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 , Was the recipe calling for fennel as in the vegetable? That is what I thought she was asking. B.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Forgot about that kind of fennel. It should be legal even though it's not on the website. That was the former moderator Patti's take on it a while ago. mom to -12 SCD 4/23/04 > Was the recipe calling for fennel as in the vegetable? > That is what I thought she was asking.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Yes, I REALLY appreciate your responses. I meant " fennel " as these bulb thingys with long green fronds, found in the produce section of the grocery store. I'd never even noticed one of these freakish looking objects before finding this recipe. :~) (What one learns about in SCD land.....) Anyway, I made Italian White Bean Soup with Carmelized Fennel. How's that for a recipe title for a girl who barely knows how to boil water. I guess we're safe then. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND HELP! Cathy > > Forgot about that kind of fennel.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Oops, I see I misread 's post -- (I read forgot as forget!) I am glad to hear it is legal -- I love that kind of fennel -- and the soup sounds wonderful... > > > > Forgot about that kind of fennel. It should be legal even though it's > > not on the website.

Anyway, just wanting to be sure it is legal. > Thank you so much for your help! > Cathy>>>> Fennel the spice is legal. You can grind it to a powder for recipes. Once you see improvements you can use it crushed. Fennel the vegetable is legal but it is very fibrous. It should only be used by those with significant improvements. Elaine wrote this about Fennel the veggie: " Fresh fennel is similar to celery and is OK. It is very fibrous and only those who are practically without symptoms should eat all that fiber. If people already have a narrowing at the ileum, these stringy and very fibrous foods can plug them up further.
