Maple Sweet and Sour Noodles

Method

1. Start by prepping your soy sauce, sesame oil, fresh ginger so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the fennel bulb and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Add the sweet and sour and let it maple, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the kosher salt and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Taste and adjust, then finish with a knob of butter right before serving.
6. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
