CARAMELIZED FENNEL AND WHITE BEAN SOUP
I love fennel, I love soup... so when this soup was recently featured on FoodTV's "Party Starters" prepared by Edison Mays, I snagged the recipe from the website and adapted it to my liking.

Steps:
- Slice the fennel bulbs thinly; chop the fennel fronds and set them aside to use later.
- In a large heavy sauce pot over medium temperature, heat the olive oil; add the sliced fennel bulb, thyme, and butter.
- Saute, stirring occasionally, until fennel is golden brown and caramelized, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Add the white wine, garlic, stock, and small white beans and simmer gently for 30 minutes.
- (At this point, if you'd like a creamy soup you can take out half of the soup and puree it in a blender, then add it back into the pot.).
- Season soup to taste with sea salt and white pepper.
- Garnish with a little drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a bit of chopped fennel frond, and serve.
- Note: more beans can be added to the soup, if you like (a couple of cups worth), or you can use other kinds of beans or a combination. And yes, the amounts are correct in the recipe - it's a gallon of stock. This makes a lotta soup!
