CARAMELIZED FENNEL, CELERY, AND SARDINE PASTA
This version of pasta con le sarde, a heart-healthy Sicilian classic, uses tinned sardines rather than fresh, cutting down on prep time. Sardine bones, softened during canning, are barely noticeable -- and full of calcium.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add fennel, celery, and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until tender and deep golden, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, bring a pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain.
- Add pasta and pasta water to skillet with vegetables. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring to coat pasta, until warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in fennel fronds, celery leaves, and lemon zest. Break up sardines into large pieces and gently fold into pasta. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil.
PASTA WITH SARDINES AND FENNEL
This traditional Sicilian dish makes a festive main course, especially when served from a giant platter. Sweet and savory flavors mingle beautifully here, with currants, raisins, saffron and pine nuts. Aromatic wild fennel fronds and fresh sardines are preferred, but even if made with cultivated fennel and canned sardines, this is a magnificent dish.

Steps:
- In a small skillet, toast bread crumbs in 2 tablespoons olive oil until golden. Season with salt and pepper and a pinch of sugar. Set aside.
- Simmer the fennel fronds in a large pot of salted water until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove and spread out on a platter to cool. Do not discard cooking water. When fronds are cool, chop finely with a large knife (or pulse in a food processor with a little of the cooking water).
- Put raisins and currants in a bowl and cover with the white wine and 1/2 cup hot fennel-cooking water. Add crumbled saffron and let ingredients steep together for 10 minutes.
- In a large skillet, stew the onions and diced fennel in 6 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat until softened, about 10 minutes. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add anchovies, ground fennel and coriander seeds, garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for 2 minutes more. Stir in reserved fennel fronds. Add the raisin mixture and its liquid and bring to a simmer.
- Season the fresh sardine fillets with salt and pepper and lay them on top of the onion mixture. Put a lid on the pan and turn off the heat for about 5 minutes, so sardines cook through and are just done. Stir to distribute chunks of fish throughout mixture. (If using canned sardines, skip this step and simply stir them in.)
- Boil the bucatini in the fennel cooking water (add more water to the pot if necessary). Cook until noodles are on the firm side of al dente, then drain, reserving 1 cup of pasta water. Add pasta to pan with onion-sardine mixture, sprinkle pasta lightly with salt and gently toss together, adding a little pasta water to keep everything well moistened. Taste and correct seasoning; it should be well seasoned.
- Transfer to a large platter or wide pasta bowl. Sprinkle with bread crumbs, pine nuts and parsley. Garnish with lemon wedges. Add a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

Steps:
- Wash the bulb fennel tops, and cut off hard parts of the stalks and the tougher sprigs. Save bulb for some other dish. Cook fennel tops and dill in three quarts salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Scoop out fennel and dill, and set aside. Reserve fennel cooking water for cooking the pasta and moistening the sauce as it cooks.
- Soak currants (and tomato, if used) in saffron-tinted hot water for 10 minutes.
- In a wide, heavy skillet, gently cook the onions in the olive oil until they are soft and golden. Add the anchovies and crush them with the back of a fork. Cook one minute. Remove from heat.
- Roughly chop the fennel and dill (this can be done using the metal blade of a food processor and the on/ off button).
- Place the chopped fennel and dill, currants, tomato if used, soaking liquid, ground fennel seed, pine nuts and one-half cup of the reserved fennel cooking water in the skillet. Simmer, stirring, for two minutes to blend flavors. Fold in the sardines, crushing a few of them into the sauce. If sauce seems too dry, add a few tablespoons of the fennel water. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and set aside. Makes about two cups and can be prepared to this point in advance.
- Twenty minutes before serving, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cook the pasta in the reserved water and boil until barely tender. Drain pasta; toss with half the sauce and arrange in a baking-serving dish. Spread the remaining sauce on top. Cover with foil and set in the oven for five minutes. Serve very hot. Pass a cruet of olive oil.

If the pasta seems a little dry, add 2 tbsp of the cooking water and stir gently. Pile onto plates and drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil, if you like.
