Chives are an aromatic plant that produces pretty little purple flowers, which is why some people grow them in pots or on balconies and use them in the kitchen. However, it does best in the Alps. It is also well established in North America. When it comes to setting the table, its flowers will give your table an attractive colour.

PROPERTIES :

Chives are a natural anti-wrinkle. It relieves rheumatism. It contains vitamins C and K. It is antibacterial and antiseptic.

CUISINE :

Putting chives on the menu is like saying bon appétit to your guests. Is it for its appetizing properties or for its refreshing flavour that it has been integrated into the assembly of herbs? A bit of both, surely! It is best to eat it fresh and avoid overcooking it. A rustic and simple dish, potatoes with chives, for the hungry! As an appetizer, cut up some carrot slices and dip them in a cucumber-flavoured chive sauce, it's great!

This sauce will be an ideal slimming topping for your picnic sandwiches. Chives also go very well with all types of fish, tuna, salmon, with homemade tagliatelle, nothing better!
