Notes
Being a spring dish. Sometimes wild fennel is added, which does give it an interesting touch. The dish is usually eaten the day after it is prepared. It can be conserved for two to tree days. Don't forget to add a drizzle of olive oil before serving.Instead of using frozen ingredients, you may freeze your final result. Easy peasy. A more laborious practice is turning it into conserves. Be careful and make sure to sterilize the jars. The different shades of green are mind blowing indeed.
