What it is
Fennel and black pepper are spices derived from plants. Fennel comes from the fennel plant (Foeniculum vulgare), with seeds that have a mild licorice flavor. Black pepper comes from the dried berries of the Piper nigrum vine, known for its pungent, spicy taste.
Why it's used
These spices are primarily used to add flavor and aroma to a wide variety of foods. They are common in meat products like sausages and hot dogs, as well as in marinades, rubs, and seasoning blends, enhancing the overall taste profile of savory dishes.
Health notes

They are common culinary spices and are not typically associated with adverse health effects at the levels found in food. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various food ingredients, but specific evaluations for the combined use of fennel and black pepper as a flavoring agent in this context are not prominently highlighted.
