Fennel and shallots are caramelized in butter and sugar, then simmered in stock with chestnuts in this rich Thanksgiving dish.
Baby fennel is in season in the late fall; cut the bulbs in half instead of quarters, and reduce the cooking time as necessary. Frozen chestnuts are available at specialty stores.
