Curly parsley is a flavorful and versatile herb with a variety of uses:
As a garnish: Its curly, vibrant leaves add a pop of color to soups, roasts, and cheese platters.
In recipes: Chop and mix it into salads, grain bowls, or marinated beans for added freshness.
In sauces: Blend it into flavorful sauces like chimichurri or mojo verde.
For stocks and soups: Add the stems to simmering broths for enhanced flavor.
Fried: Fry it for a crispy accompaniment to fish dishes.
Curly parsley is known for its stronger, slightly green and metallic flavor compared to flat-leaf parsley, and some consider it more flavorful. It’s also packed with health benefits, offering vitamin K to support bone health and natural diuretic properties. Importantly, it’s safe for consumption and not toxic according to major health organizations. In the culinary world, curly parsley is prized for its frilly appearance and bright green color, making it a popular choice as a decorative garnish for soups, roasts, and platters. Its milder flavor compared to flat-leaf parsley works well in sauces, marinades, and dishes where a subtle parsley note is preferred. Additionally, it can be chopped into recipes like salsas or chimichurri, where its texture adds a unique touch.
