Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the fennel, onions, and thyme and saute for 20 to 25 minutes, until the onions and fennel are very tender and caramelized. (You can add a little water if it starts to stick.) Deglaze the pan by adding the brandy; reduce the heat to medium and cook for 3 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan. Add the sherry and white wine and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Add the chicken stock, salt, and pepper and continue to cook, uncovered, for another 15 minutes. Add the Pernod and cook for 5 more minutes. Check for salt and pepper.
- Preheat the broiler.
- Ladle the soup into 6 to 8 ovenproof bowls and place 1 or 2 slices of French bread and a handful of Gruyère cheese on top of each bowl. Place the bowls on a baking sheet and slide them under the broiler for 3 minutes, or until the cheese is brown and bubbly, and serve.
FENNEL, LEEK, AND CARROT GRATIN
Steps:
- 1. Prepare the grill for direct and indirect cooking over high heat and preheat pan. 2. Cut off the thick stalks and the root ends from the fennel bulbs and discard them. Quarter each fennel bulb, then trim away most of the tough, white triangular core. Cut each fennel quarter crosswise into ¼-inch slices. Place the fennel in a medium bowl and toss with the oil, ¼ teaspoon of the salt, and ¼ teaspoon of the pepper. 3. In a medium bowl combine the carrots, cream, 1½ tablespoons of the dill, the orange zest, mustard, the remaining ½ teaspoon salt, and the remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper. 4. In a medium bowl combine the topping ingredients and toss. 5. Spread the fennel in a single layer on the grill pan and grill over direct high heat, with the lid closed until golden brown and crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes, turning every 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the fennel to the bowl with the carrots and cream mixture. 6. Place a cast-iron skillet over direct high heat and add the butter. Sauté the leek until slightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Move the skillet over indirect heat and add to it the contents of the bowl with the fennel, carrots, and cream. Cover the skillet loosely with aluminum foil. Grill over indirect high heat, with the lid closed until the fennel is tender, 25 to 30 minutes, checking every 8 to 10 minutes and rotating the skillet if one side is browning faster than the other. Remove the foil and scatter the gratin topping evenly over the top. Close the grill lid and cook for 2 minutes. Wearing insulated barbecue mitts, remove the skillet from the grill. 7. Garnish the gratin with the remaining 1½ tablespoons dill. Serve right away with rice (or another starch), sliced tomatoes, or a salad of baby greens tossed with fresh lemon juice, good sea salt, and best-quality extra-virgin olive oil.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil, add a generous amount of salt and add kale. Blanch for 2 to 3 minutes, remove from the water with a deep fry skimmer or a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl of cold water. Drain and, taking the greens up by the handful, squeeze hard to expel excess water. Chop medium-fine or cut in thin ribbons.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add onion. Cook, stirring often, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add fennel. Cook, stirring often, until the fennel begins to soften. Add salt to taste and continue to cook, stirring often, until the fennel is very tender and fragrant, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and kale, stir together for another minute, then stir in dill. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Oil a 2-quart gratin or baking dish. Beat eggs in a large bowl. Whisk in milk and salt to taste (I use about 1/2 teaspoon). Stir in fennel and kale mixture, rice and Gruyère, and combine well. Taste and adjust seasonings. Scrape into baking dish. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over the top if using, and drizzle on the remaining tablespoon of oil. Bake 35 to 40 minutes, until set and the top and sides are beginning to color. Remove from oven and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. This is good hot, warm, or room temperature.
