Yield Makes about 2/3 cup

Number Of Ingredients 3

2/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons fennel seeds, toasted
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh orange zest

Steps:

  • Line a large baking sheet with a sheet of foil, then lightly oil foil. Cook sugar in a dry 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat, undisturbed, until it begins to melt. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until sugar is melted into a deep golden caramel. Immediately remove from heat and stir in fennel seeds and zest, then quickly pour onto baking sheet, spreading with back of spoon before syrup hardens.
  • Cool on baking sheet 5 minutes, then break into pieces and pulse in a food processor until finely ground.
