Curled Chervil

A tier

Curled chervil has frilled, decorative leaflets that look ornate on plates while keeping the mild anise-parsley taste of flat types. The curl can hold vinaigrette droplets attractively in composed salads. Slightly more ornamental than flat-leaf strains; flavour difference is subtle. Harvest outer leaves and keep plants cool and moist. Curled forms dominate some European seed racks for dual kitchen-garden appeal.
