chives

Origin & Special Features

Chives are among Europe's most popular culinary herbs and are related to onions and garlic—but with a much milder flavor. Our dried version is carefully processed to preserve color and aroma and is a practical alternative to the fresh herb, ready for use at any time.

Taste & Aroma

Delicate, fresh, slightly oniony with a pleasant spiciness. The flavor is reminiscent of mild spring onions and adds a green freshness to dishes without dominating them.

Application

Ideal for refining quark, herb butter, egg dishes, soups, and salads. Also excellent in sauces, potato dishes, or as a topping over warm dishes. Simply sprinkle in just before serving or let it infuse briefly in liquid.

Health benefits

Chives contain vitamin C, iron, and essential oils that may have antibacterial properties. They aid digestion and have mild diuretic properties—a little powerhouse in any kitchen!
