Fox’s Spices Fennel Powder 600g

Fennel Powder

Fox’s Spices Fennel Powder 600g is a warm, gently sweet spice with a soft aniseed note that suits both savoury and sweet dishes. Made from finely ground fennel seeds, this smooth powder blends easily into sauces, marinades, rubs and baking mixes without leaving hard bits behind. The flavour is rounded and aromatic rather than harsh, adding a light liquorice-style taste that works especially well with pork, sausages, tomato sauces, roast vegetables and breads. A small spoonful can bring extra depth to everyday meals, from simple pasta dishes to slow-cooked stews.

Key Features:

• Large 600g tub of fennel powder, ideal for regular cooking, batch recipes and spice blends.
• Finely ground fennel seeds for a smooth texture that mixes evenly into wet and dry ingredients.
• Warm, mildly sweet flavour that pairs naturally with pork, sausages, tomato-based dishes and roast vegetables.
• Handy for making your own sausage seasoning, Italian-style spice mixes and aromatic curry powders.
• Versatile fennel spice that works across many cuisines, from Mediterranean and Middle Eastern to Indian recipes.

Recipe Inspiration:

• Fennel and Pork Meatballs: Mix Fox’s Spices Fennel Powder into pork mince with garlic, breadcrumbs and a little black pepper. Shape into meatballs, brown in a pan and simmer in tomato sauce for a comforting meal with a gentle fennel flavour.
• Tomato and Fennel Pasta Sauce: Gently cook onions and garlic in olive oil, then stir in chopped tomatoes and a teaspoon of fennel powder. Simmer until thickened, then toss with pasta. The fennel gives the sauce a deeper, slightly sweet note that works well with grated cheese.
• Fennel-Spiced Roast Carrots and Parsnips: Sprinkle fennel powder over carrots and parsnips with a little oil and salt, then roast until tender and caramelised. The warm, aromatic flavour of fennel suits root vegetables and makes a simple side dish a bit more interesting.
• Simple Fennel Rub for Fish or Chicken: Combine Fox’s Spices Fennel Powder with paprika, garlic granules and a pinch of salt. Rub onto fish fillets or chicken pieces before grilling, air-frying or roasting for a straightforward seasoning that adds gentle sweetness and aroma.

What is fennel powder made from and how is it different from whole fennel seeds?

Fennel powder is made by grinding dried fennel seeds into a fine, even-textured spice. Whole fennel seeds give little bursts of flavour when you bite into them, while fennel powder spreads the taste more evenly through a dish and is better suited to smooth sauces, rubs and baking mixes.

How do you use fennel powder in everyday cooking?

Fennel powder can be added at the start of cooking to build flavour in stews, soups and tomato sauces, or sprinkled into marinades, burger mixes and meatball mixtures. It also works well in homemade sausage seasoning, roasted vegetable dishes and spice blends, particularly when paired with garlic, chilli, citrus, pork or tomatoes.

Can fennel powder be used in baking and sweet recipes?

Yes, fennel powder can be used in small amounts in baking, especially in breads, biscuits and lightly spiced cakes. Its gentle aniseed character sits well alongside citrus zest, honey and warm spices, so a pinch can bring an interesting twist to sweet bakes as well as savoury dishes.
