I know the seeds aren't and believe the stalk and bulb are starchy. I went to

Elaine's site to

check it out but the site was down. If fennel is found to be legal add a bit to

the stuffing

for its licorice flavor. It's interesting that without a recipe, I used to add

many of the other

ingredients to a stuffing based on almond flour. But I always ate half of it

before stuffing

anything with it b/c it is so good.

A tip, the Kosher Cornish hens are tastiest. They come frozen

Thanks, Carol.

I checked Elaine's web site before it went down.

Neither fennel nor anise were listed.

If someone knows whether fennel is legal or not, it

would help me. My new doctor wants me to eat small

amounts for medicinal purposes. My gut feeling (no

pun intended) is that it's not legal.

Thanks,

Fresh fennel bulb or the soft ferny fresh fennel foliage should be

just as legal as celery.... though fennel isn't listed at all on Elaine's

website. Not sure why.

BTW: That intimidating recipe is actually for THREE things, the Cornish hen,

some roasted

veggies and the sauce. No need to make all three!

I found this on Google and it says fennel has no disaccharides:

Both fennel and anise are SCD legal AS SPICES. That is, a small amount

included in an entire recipe. If you check my pepperoni recipe, you'll see

there's a very tiny amount of each in it -- but then it's diluted by over

two pounds of meat!

Why does your doctor want you to use these herbs? What are they supposed to

accomplish?

Thank you, Marilyn--

I have a bacterial infection from food poisoning that

SCD can't override.

My new doctor (previous one retired) wants me to eat

small amounts of fennel/anise, bok choy, and parsley

to help heal my gut. They are all SCD legal, but if

they weren't, I wouldn't even consider trying them.

However, I am hesitant about the fennel.
