CHIVES

Sweet, mild-onion flavored chives are fresh top greens in the onion family of bulb vegetables. Its stiff, hollow, tubular leaves appear similar to that of onions, but smaller in diameter, and appear somewhat like grass from a distance. They should not be confused to green-onions, which are top greens of young, immature onion plants AND to scallions, which are top-greens of Allium fistulosum (Welsh onion). Along with chervil, parsley, and tarragon, chive makes the perfectly "balanced quartet" of classic French fines herbes (fine herbs).
