Chervil is a versatile aromatic herb known for its delicate, sweet anise-like flavor, making it a staple in French cuisine. Ideal for garnishing and seasoning, it pairs beautifully with fish, eggs, vegetables, and sauces. A key ingredient in classic béarnaise sauce, Chervil is best added at the end of cooking to preserve its flavor.

I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
