Chives are used as both a garnish and as an aromatic herb. They have a mild onion flavor, that doesn’t tend to leave a long aftertaste. Typically, Chives are added at the end of the cooking process because they lose flavor when heated. Chives pair well with parsley, tarragon, and chervil, which together make up the well-known French “fines herbes”. Bundled together, the herbs are added to stocks and soups, and removed at the end of the cooking process. Fines herbes are also used fresh, chopped and mixed and added to salads. Add chopped Chives to potato dishes, quiches, scrambled eggs, or a bagel with smoked salmon and cream cheese. Give butter a hint of flavor by adding Chives and use it on baked potatoes, steaks or use it as a rub for chicken.
