Sometimes I read recipes and my mouth starts to salivate (same thing happens when I watch Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, but I digress) as I read the ingredients and imagine their tastiness.
Other times I read recipes and I think, "huh."
This recipe was a product of my curiosity after I read about the idea of combining fennel and pear in a soup…followed by a "huh."
So I tried my own version of combining pear and fennel in soup and my "huh" quickly changed into a "yum!"
This is simple eating at it's finest. Fresh flavors. Natural sweetness. Refined flavors. All in about 20 minutes flat.
Pear Fennel Soup
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium yellow onion
2 small fennel bulbs
2 medium pears, ripe, but not overly soft
1 cup apple juice
4 cups waters
salt and pepper to taste
In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Chop the onion and add to the pan. Cook 2-3 minutes.
Slice the fennel and core and slice the pear (no need to peel) and chop roughly. Add to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Add the apple juice, water and salt and pepper (about 1 - 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper, or to taste) and bring to a boil.
Reduce to a simmer and cover. Let simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Remove from heat and puree, either with a blender (be careful--it's hot!) or immersion blender.
Serve with fresh fennel fronds (from the top of the fennel bulb).
Say it with me, "yum."
Serves 6.
Life is sweet,
SPC

I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again. If you are going through any relationship stress or you want back your Ex or Divorce husband you can contact his whatsapp +2347012841542 or email emutemple@gmail.com
My husband and I have been having lots of problems living together, he never gives me attention or makes me happy because he has fallen in love with another woman outside our marriage. I tried my best to make sure that my husband leaves this woman but the more I talk to him about it the more he makes me feel sad and unhappy, My marriage started leading to divorce because he no longer gives me attention. I wanted to forget him but i love him and didn't want to lose him. We have been married for years and he is all I could call a true best friend and best in all, the man that handles my problems perfectly, the man that makes sacrifices for ,my happiness. I wanted him back in my life badly and I was so confused. My Friends told me to buy books about relationships, so I went online for relationship books while I came across a spell caster called Dr Emu. I read testimonies and reviews about him so I contacted him immediately, explained my problems to him. Same day , he casted a spell for me and assured me for 2 days that my husband will return to me and to my greatest surprise the third day my husband came knocking on my door and begged for forgiveness. I am so happy that my love is back again and not only that, we are about to get married again, he proposed. I wouldn't stop talking about him. Contact him today if you need his help via email: emutemple@gmail.com and you will see that your problem will be solved without any delay. Website: https://emutemple.wordpress.com/
