Parsley

What it is

Perhaps the most legendary garnish of all time, flat leaf parsley is worth the fanfare. Used in funeral rites (but not cooking!) by early Greeks, the hardy, palate-cleansing herb grows easily, and quickly made its way into kitchen gardens around the world. It’s a main component of many French stocks, and by the early 1900s had become a staple garnish for cooks looking to brighten up their plates without overpowering the flavor of their food. After getting a bad rap as a mere garnish during the fussy food phase of the eighties, it’s made a well-deserved comeback.
