Non-GMO | Open-Pollinated | Delicate French fine herb
The Culinary Edge
Chervil is the quiet luxury herb: soft, ferny, and lightly anise-sweet, with the tenderness chefs want for eggs, spring vegetables, salads, and sauces. It shines in cool weather and gives the kitchen garden a refined fine-herbs note.

Flavor Profile
- Soft anise finish: More delicate than parsley, with a gentle sweetness that disappears under heavy heat.
- Fine-herb freshness: Best added at the end of cooking or used fresh where its tenderness can show.
Culinary Versatility
- The egg herb: A classic finishing herb for omelets, soft scrambled eggs, and herb butters.
- The spring vegetable lift: Use with peas, asparagus, potatoes, vinaigrettes, and tender greens.
- The quiet garnish: Adds detail and aroma without overpowering a dish.
Growing Notes
- Cool-season herb; sow for spring and fall harvests and provide some shade in heat.
- Direct sowing is preferred because chervil dislikes rough transplanting.
- Harvest young leaves regularly for the best delicate texture.
