Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is an aromatic annual plant belonging to the Apiaceae family. It typically grows to a height of 1-2 meters and has a slender, smooth, and upright stem. The leaves are thread-like, divided, and hairless, giving the plant a delicate appearance. Its flowers are yellow and grouped in small, umbrella-like clusters. Fennel naturally thrives in warm and sunny Mediterranean climates but has been widely cultivated around the world. The seeds are commonly used as a spice in culinary applications, as well as in herbal teas and medicinal preparations. Additionally, they are known for their digestive support and carminative properties, holding a significant place in both traditional and modern medicine.

The most distinctive feature of the fennel plant is its sweet, anise-like aromatic scent, which is concentrated in the seeds. The seeds are small, oval, and greenish-brown, becoming richer in aromatic oils as they mature. Ripe fennel seeds contain 2-4% essential oil and 10-20% fixed oil.
