I am Spanish myself and Adriá is famous for his idiocies. My husband is laughing his head off at the sentence. completely off the hook!!
Muchas gracias! Thank you both!
As a cook this is then how it seems to me:
Separate the leaves from the fennel stalks and cut stalks into small pieces. Scald the stalks for 2 minutes and the leaves for 30 seconds in boiling water. Cool in ice water and drain. Crush in a Cuisinart? Juicer? Vaso Americano? with 200 ml ice water. Strain through a cheese cloth or strainer.
