What is in the case
The supplier states no weight for the 4OZ pack, so we quote it as a pack and publish no price per pound for it. That is a limit of the source, and the reason our figure stays comparable from one week to the next: a per-pound price built on an assumed case weight moves whenever the assumption does.

About Micro sea fennel
Sea fennel — rock samphire — is a coastal plant, and it is on this list for a saline, mineral flavour that no other micro line provides. It is not a small version of the fennel seedling sold alongside it: the anise note is faint and what a cook is actually buying is salt and a firm, succulent bite. It goes on raw shellfish, on cured fish and into anything that wants the taste of the sea without added salt. It is one of the more expensive lines in the range because it is slower to grow than a leaf seedling.
Buying notes
Check that the stems are firm rather than limp; a succulent that has lost turgor does not come back and the whole point of the item is the bite. Because it is genuinely salty, adjust the seasoning of whatever it goes on rather than treating it as a neutral garnish — a plate finished with sea fennel and salted as usual comes out over-seasoned.
