Yes the recipe is easy to follow, it just looks a little complicated at a first glance, but it really is not. Please stop back and let us know how you and your family like them.
To find this article again, you can just google Diana's Anise Biscotti and you should find it :)
Very timely for me since I grew fennel this year for the first time, and now it is ripening seeds. The black swallow tails really favored this plant, ignoring the planters full of parsley near-by, so I will be growing fennel every year I can.
The recipe looks so clear. Thank you. By the way I have a grandson at Rutgers, too.
I love the perennial fennel patch we have. It is not that large, only about 6 plants. Our fennel is planted in a butterfly berm that includes common milkweed, buddleia, and some echinacea that just showed up there. Our black swallow tails seem to equally favor the fennel and the parsley.
Anne, that is neat your grandson goes to Rutgers; you live pretty close to me. The next time there is a DG group trip posted in the MidAtlantic forum you may want to join us. A group of us went to Longwood Gardens this summer and hope to do it again some day. Here is the link of some of our group photos (this link will be visible only to DG subscribing members*): http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/850074/
Longwood has a lovely herb garden, which we got to towards the end of our visit. By then, we were exhausted from all the walking and I can't remember if they had fennel or anise growing. I'll have to pay closer attention the next time :)
I am looking forward to trying to grow anise next season.
