Easy, delicious and flavored tuna sandwich for a quick snack, but no junk. A super groomed sandwich, that we like it to be a little hearty meal for two.
The finocchio (in Italian) or fennel is a vegetable with antioxidants, with crisp texture and slightly sweet taste that by adding, it offers a refreshing contribution to the ever popular Mediterranean Cuisine.
The fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) has been known since ancient times for its benefits. Plays an important role in the food cultures of many European nations, mainly Italy and France, where the fennel combine or make delicious dishes. In autumn or early spring, when readily available, are the best moments.
