This staple of regional cuisine is distinguished by its smooth, deep-green leaves and its rich aroma, which is significantly more pronounced than that of the curly variety. Selected by Le Delas for the sturdiness of its stems and its high aromatic concentration, this versatile herb provides an essential flavour base for the stocks, butters and garnishes of the most demanding professionals.
Culinary uses, preparation and storage:
► Culinary applications: A key ingredient in persillade, snail butter and bouquet garni, it also adds structure to meat jus and vegetable marinades.
► Presentation and texture: Its chopped or whole leaves provide a classic and elegant finish to pan-fried mushrooms, fish meunière or beef tartare, without ever overwhelming the palate.
► Preparation: To preserve its herbaceous notes, it is best to add the chopped leaves right at the end of cooking or to use them raw to retain the chlorophyll.
► Storage: Store in a positive-temperature cold room, ideally with the stems immersed in a bowl of fresh water or wrapped in damp paper to keep the leaves crisp over time.
