Fennel isn’t usually the star of a dish, but in this sous vide cream of fennel soup, it is. This creamy soup is full of flavor, thanks to chicken stock, spices, and of course, some crispy bacon. Like most soups, this one is better after a night in the refrigerator and will hold for up to three days. NOTE: Must love fennel!
