Widely
used in cooking since the 18th century, parsley is typically used for
savoury dishes, salads, soups and sauces.Whether used fresh, in dried
form, alone or in the classic combination of fine herbs (together with
chervil, tarragon and chives), parsley is always a star performer,
imparting its characteristic flavour to hot and cold dishes alike.
