For anyone interested in the kitchen, think of food pairings and you can find lots of information on the internet about it and some very good books such as the flavour thesaurus, a book I recommend for anyone interested in food pairings: https://www.amazon.com/Flavor-Thesaurus-Compendium-Pairings-Creative/dp/160819874X

Now think of carrots, apple and fennel as the perfect combination – some spices to lead you to a savoury road or down a sweet avenue. See more information of food pairings: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foodpairing or https://www.foodpairing.com/en/success-for-foodies
