What are "chives"?
Chives are thin, green herbs with a mild onion-like flavor. They belong to the same family as onions, garlic, and leeks. Chives are commonly used as a garnish or flavoring in various dishes, including salads, soups, omelets, and baked potatoes. They can be chopped and sprinkled over dishes for a subtle onion flavor and a pop of color. Chives are also valued for their nutritional content, as they are rich in vitamins A and C, as well as minerals like potassium and calcium.
