Genus Overview: Parsley
Common Name: Parsley
Deep green, tender leaves that are either flat (Italian) or deeply frilled (curly). Often grown as an annual and appreciated as a garnish or flavor enhancer in dishes like soups and salads. Slightly pungent, and can have hints of citrus, clove, and nutmeg. Flat-leaf varieties are more flavorful than curly types.
