We usually use plants to flavour and aroma to our plates without attention to their nutrients, but know what properties will help that I increase its use to take advantage of their strengths, so it is important to know that fennela large plant that flavored, has very low in calories but much potassium in its composition.

About 100 grams of fennel contribute 420 mg of potassium and only 30 Kcal, by what may be the ideal ingredient in stews and soups for volume without increasing their energy input but if increasing its nutritive density.

Fennel may also be present in soups, barbecues, sauces, salads and cakes, giving a characteristic flavour and providing a mineral important and abundant in the body as it is the potassium.
