Fennel Dill Hummus



When I saw the fennel in the CSA box on Tuesday I became very excited. I knew exactly how to put that veg in my belly.... Here's a recipe I whipped up (literally) using the lil' fennel babies of Rio Gozo Farm. 

Fennel Dill Dip

2 c. Fennel bulbs
2 T. Garlic scape or fresh green garlic
2 T. Green onion
juice of 1/2 a lemon
1/4 c. olive oil
1 t. cumin
2 T. fresh dill weed
3 T. Tahini 
salt n' pepper

Chop fennel lengthwise and clean.  Boil or steam for approximately 5 minutes.  In a blender or food processor combine fennel, garlic, onion, lemon juice, olive oil and lemon.  Puree until creamy.  Pour into a serving dish and add cumin, dill, tahini, salt and pepper, stir well.  Chill if desired or eat it all up at once with last week's kohlrabi!!!

There is plenty of gozo at Rio Gozo Farm. That is JOY in Spanish and joy is one of the most dependable products we have. Gozo is commonly found in gardens and farms. Once you get a little gozo up and going it is very tolerant of most pests, withstands dry periods, and grows with a modicum of fertilizer. After gozo becomes a staple of one's diet, it goes with about anything. Actually folks crave it so much it is a wonder everyone does not have a patch of it growing close at hand. Grab up some gozo and get with the flow.
