Description
Chervil is a delicate spring herb with finely feathery foliage and a mild anise–parsley aroma. It is a classic ingredient in Frankfurt's green sauce and tastes best when used fresh, as its subtle flavor quickly dissipates during cooking.
Care instructions
Sow chervil directly in the garden in a semi‑shaded spot, as intense summer sun can cause it to bolt. Keep the soil consistently moist and re‑sow every few weeks from March onward. This allows a continuous harvest of fresh greens from April through October.
