Fennel and Comice Pear Soup
Fennel, also called sweet anise or finocchio, is crunchy and has a lovely anisey flavor. It has three distinct parts: the stalks, the feathery fronds (which can be used as an herb), and the pale green bulbs. Comice pears are large and very sweet and juicy. Together they make a perfect seasonal first course.
