30/30 - #16 Caramelized Pancetta and Fennel Salad

Almost halfway through my Top 30 list! Hard to believe it is going by so fast...and that I am almost 30 years old!

30/30 - #16 Caramelized Pancetta and Fennel Salad

Today's favorite is an oldie, but a goodie. This salad was an early recipe on Kettler Cuisine and one that I give credit to my mother. She first made this salad for the Hubby and I several years ago and it has been a frequent favorite ever since. People are always surprised when I recommend this recipe, questioning my affection for fennel. Unfortunately, this poor vegetable has a bad rep, always being associated with anise and licorice flavors. Surprisingly, fennel takes on a whole new flavor profile once it is cooked and pairs very well with the brown sugar and salty pancetta. But don't take my word for it, try it yourself!!
