About Chervil leaf

Chervil leaf is the delicate foliage of chervil, an herb used fresh or cooked briefly to season foods. It is commonly chopped into sauces, salads, and other preparations where a mild herbal note is wanted.

The leaves are fine, bright green, and divided into small, soft segments, somewhat resembling flat-leaf parsley. Their flavour is mild and subtly anise-like; fresh leaves are more tender and aromatic than dried ones.
