I was a bit concerned too but it was already simmering quite a bit with bubbles on the surface so then was concerned about turning it up and risking it being too high. I think I may have boiled it to begin with which then ruined the emulsification which is why it took longer. Who knows! It was DELISH and loved the fennel even though I am not a fennel girlie🍝
Five hours concerns me! I would say you could turn the heat up slightly- I can’t imagine it taking that long!
