While searching for a Easter recipe I came across a podcast 31.03.2021 ** with the starred chef Alfons Schuhbeck, who talked about chervil: In previous time chervil was more used as a medicinal herb than in the kitchen. The bitterns are good for liver and gall and helps to digest. The taste is a little bitter, it should remind of myrr. He also reports that chervil is a component of “Herbs de Provence”. I’ve already written two entries with chervil for WHB, a chervil potato soup and a chervil soup with crayfish tails. This week I cooked a

Das klingt lecker. Der Estragon bei mir muss dringend etwas gestutzt werden, denn ich brauche nicht nur Platz für Koriander sondern auch für Kerbel. Dann kann ich auch die Suppe testen.
Kerbel ist seit Jahren aus meiner Wahrnehmung (und Küche) verschwunden. Warum auch immer. Denn grade zu Kohlrabi kenn ich ihn schon seit meiner Kindheit als fast unverzichtbar – und natürlich zu Kärnter Kasnudeln, die ich schon ewig nicht mehr gemacht hab, fällt mir grad auf.
Danke für die Erinnerung! Werd gleich mal gucken, obs in meinem Kräuterbeet noch ein freies Eckchen gibt. :-)
I love Kohlrabi
I’m not sure if I’ve tasted chervil though. Might be a fun herb to try growing this year. (I’m trying to think about summer since we’re having snow again today!)
Hi, i’ve not had kohlrabi.. but i’m quite certain i’ve had something with the chervil herb in it. Thanks for sharing your recipe. It looks extremely healthy and I love that :)
