Pages: 1 Fennel       #153443 - 02/23/05 06:58 PM Edit Reply Quote AllisonL Reged: 01/19/05 Posts: 54 Loc: Chapel Hill, North Carolina I am sort of confused as to how to make the fennel tea. Does steeping the seeds do the job or must you crush them? I tried doing this and ended up with like a powder that came right through the mesh into the cup. I tried to drink that but began feeling queasy. I have noticed it is strong when just the seeds are brewed, but wanted to be sure I was actually getting the effect. Have been mixing this with mint tea to disguise the funny taste!

Hope this helps! -------------------- Amy Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Fennel       #153462 - 02/23/05 08:08 PM Edit Reply Quote Kree Reged: 10/08/03 Posts: 3748 Loc: Northern NY I steep mine whole and it always seems to do the trick for me. I also like mixing them with mint! I agree that they're much tastier that way. -------------------- "Anyone can exercise, but this kind of lethargy takes real discipline." -Garfield Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
