Bagna Cauda with Crudités
Bagna cauda is Italian for hot bath and refers to pungent anchovy and olive oil dip. Since the solids in bagna cauda fall to the bottom, it is best set out in a shallow dish or a fondue pot. You can vary the vegetables for the crudités and also serve toasted bread chunks. Cocktail Party Recipes

Notes
To prepare fennel crudités, remove the stalks where they join the bulb; then cut the bulb in half vertically. Cut off any fibrous portions or brown spots. Lay the fennel halves cut side down, and thinly slice them lengthwise; the core will keep the wedges intact. Then cut off the bottom core that holds the slices together.
