Product description
"Lingot" Chinese chives seed pack, produced by Veritable.
This variety of chives is very common in China. Despite its many medicinal virtues and its taste, it remains little known in France and Europe. Chinese chive leaves have a mild garlic flavor. The leaves are almost flat and light green in color. Chinese chives are used to flavour salads and omelettes. This aromatic plant also contains a high level of vitamin C.
How to cook Chinese chives
Chinese chives are used as a flavouring in many Asian dishes. Their thin, fragrant stems can be used raw or cooked. You can add them to stir-fries, soups, sauces, marinades, dressings, and dishes with meat or vegetables.
The stems can also be finely chopped and used as a garnish for noodle dishes, dumplings, salads, and omelettes. Chinese chives add a touch of freshness to your dishes.
Tips for successfully growing the plant
You can start harvesting the stems when the plant reaches a height of approximately 15 to 20 centimetres. Use clean scissors to cut the stems at the base of the plant. Be careful not to cut all the stems at once to allow the plant to continue growing and producing new stems.
