I managed to sprout ramps in my garden but the slugs are attacking

Fennel, along with celeriac, are a couple of ingredients that are rarer than hen's teeth on menu's in the deep south. I've been pretty resourceful in incorporating celeriac into various dishes but fennel has certainly lagged. BKEats piqued my interest with fennel pesto last week so I incorporated fennel it into a light soup. The soup base was a puree of fennel, onion and chicken stock. The soup was finished with diced potatoes, cauliflower and fennel fronds.
Celery root / celeriac is one of my "comfort" growing up foods. Have you ever had it fresh from the garden? Very different than the store, where it can sometimes be a crapshoot as far as age / stringiness. My family also has an interesting vegetarian soup/stew that uses fennel fronds or dill and zuccini squash in a light broth and a touch of sour cream / creme fraisch.
