Ingredients
wild fennel seeds.

spontaneous in the Mediterranean basin, wild fennel has been used in cooking for centuries. We collect the seeds and dry them naturally to preserve their organoleptic properties.

Wild fennel is a very fragrant aromatic herb that grows spontaneously in many areas of Sicily: the leaves (barbette), the shoots and above all the fruits which are what we commonly call "seeds" and whose flavor recalls the anise. These are used in many traditional preparations and also in the seasoning of the typical sausage prepared in the eastern area of ​​the island. It has valuable carminative (i.e., absorbs and eliminates gas from the intestine), antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In fact, the seeds are also used for decoctions and herbal teas.

Our Segreti di Sicilia line of preserves was born from the love for this land and its traditions, from the scents of our childhood, from our grandmother's secrets and from the rediscovery of an authentic and genuine past. Each product speaks of a specific territory, of a biodiversity that the world envies us. We choose each of them from our own crops or from our network, small and local productions and farmers who work the land with the same passion and respect as in the past. These genuine products are then transformed in our modern canning plant with the help of latest generation machinery. We use innovative cooking and preservation techniques that guarantee absolute respect for the original recipe and, at the same time, the preservation of all the organoleptic characteristics of the fresh product and its main nutritional aspects. The absence of preservatives and colorings allows you to taste a genuine product.
