Origin and description
“ FRENCH ELEGANCE FOR YOUR KITCHEN ”.
This blend of tarragon, parsley, chives, and chervil forms the basis of classic French cuisine. Translated as "Fine Herbs," Fines Herbes lend dishes a subtle, elegant touch. They are essential for light, aromatic recipes and are excellent for a wide variety of uses.
Taste and aroma
Mild, fresh, herbaceous, with a fine, delicate spiciness.
Application
Fines Herbes are a perfect complement to egg dishes, salads, vegetables, potatoes, beans, fish, veal, carrots, mushrooms, and asparagus. Since heat can quickly diminish their aroma and flavor, they should be added at the very end of cooking. This herb blend is also ideal for refining sauces and dressings.
Interesting facts
Fine herbs originated in French haute cuisine, where they are considered a symbol of elegance and refinement. As early as the 19th century, they were used in Paris for light dishes that deliberately contrasted with heavy gravies. To this day, fine herbs remain an integral part of classic recipes and represent the fresh, delicate side of French cuisine.
