This classic of French cuisine is distinguished by its finely cut foliage and subtle notes of liquorice and aniseed, lending a rare elegance to dishes. Selected by Le Delas for the suppleness of its stems and the brilliance of its tender green colour, this delicate aromatic herb is one of the cornerstones of ‘fines herbes', essential for adding a touch of refinement and precision to dishes.
Culinary uses, preparation and storage:
► Culinary applications: Ideal for enhancing delicate omelettes, velvety soups and classic sauces such as Béarnaise or Gribiche, it adds an aromatic freshness without overpowering the main flavours.
► Presentation and finishing: Its delicate leaves are highly prized in gourmet cuisine for garnishing poached fish, scallops or spring vegetables, adding a sophisticated visual touch.
► Preparation: As a particularly delicate herb, chervil must be added at the very last moment, off the heat, to preserve its volatile aromas and silky texture.
► Storage: Must be stored in a positive-temperature cold room, ideally in an airtight container with a slightly damp paper towel to prevent the leaves from wilting quickly.
