Regal Chives, Allium schoenoprasum, are
the reed-like stems of a perennial, bulbous
plant of the lily family. The name "Chives"
is
derived from the Latin cepa, meaning
onion, and chives are a member of the
onion family. Many think chives taste like a
sweet, milder version of an onion.
Regal Chives are used in cold soups, stir-
fried items, cheese and cream sauces,
dips, potatoes, and as a garnish. They are
popular in European and Chinese
cuisines
and in the seasoning blends of fine herbs.
Sold in a .5 oz. bottle.
