January Spice of the Month:
Kick off the New Year with fennel seeds—an aromatic spice with a sweet, anise-like flavor commonly used in Indian, Italian, and baking traditions. Known for its digestive benefits, fennel is a perfect way to start the year feeling nourished and refreshed. This month’s kit includes two recipes and recommended reads to inspire you in the kitchen and beyond.
