📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Coniglio con finocchio is a traditional Sammarinese meat dish: rabbit is slowly roasted with fennel fronds or seeds, garlic, and white wine. The fresh scent of fennel pairs well with the meat. At home it's sometimes made with chicken, and it's served with roast potatoes.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On a Sunday in a Sammarinese home, golden meat and potatoes fragrant with fennel are set on the table right in the roasting tray.
