Description

Micro Garlic Chives Punnet is a punnet of micro garlic chives – the micro seedling combining the mild flavour of chives with a gentle garlic note, in a slender, elegant form. Micro garlic chives deliver a two-layered aromatic character in one ingredient. As a result, they suit any dish where both chive and garlic flavour would be welcome in a subtle, refined form. Furthermore, the slender upright form of garlic chive microherbs makes them one of the most architecturally elegant of all garnishes. In particular, they suit fish, egg and pasta dishes where a delicate allium note is wanted.

About Micro Garlic Chives Punnet

We source our microherbs and garnishes from specialist growers using controlled indoor growing environments. In particular, we select every variety for its flavour intensity, visual impact and condition on delivery. As a result, the microherbs we deliver meet the standard demanded by the finest restaurant kitchens in Britain. Furthermore, microherbs are the seedling stage of familiar herbs and vegetables. We harvest them at 7 to 14 days when flavour and nutrients are at their absolute peak. However, their delicate size requires careful handling from grower to cook. In particular, microherbs must travel the shortest possible distance between harvest and kitchen to arrive in perfect condition. Additionally, we work only with growers who harvest to order rather than holding stock. That freshness is what makes the difference on the plate. That is why Micro Garlic Chives Punnet from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Micro Garlic Chives Punnet From Us

Using microherbs well is about restraint and placement. In contrast to full-sized herbs, microherbs do not suit cooking. As a result, they go on at the very last moment as a finishing garnish rather than an ingredient. Furthermore, a small quantity applied with precision achieves far more than a large quantity scattered carelessly. However, their flavour is considerably more concentrated than the full-grown version might suggest. In particular, micro coriander, micro basil and micro roquette each carry an intensity that surprises most cooks the first time they use them. Moreover, the visual impact of microherbs is immediate and professional. Additionally, tweezers rather than fingers give the most precise placement. That precision is what distinguishes a professional finish from a home presentation.

How to Use Micro Garlic Chives Punnet

To get the very best from Micro Garlic Chives Punnet:

  • Stand upright on the finished dish for a dramatic vertical garnish effect.
  • Scatter flat over eggs, fish and light pasta dishes for a refined chive-garlic note.
  • Furthermore, micro garlic chives suit Asian preparations where garlic chives are traditional.
  • Additionally, use as a garnish for oysters, sashimi and composed seafood plates.

Perfect Pairings

Micro Garlic Chives Punnet pairs beautifully with:

  • Eggs, omelettes and scrambled eggs as the most natural pairing
  • Fish, oysters and delicate seafood preparations
  • Dumplings, gyoza and Asian preparations where garlic chives are traditional
  • Sour cream, creme fraiche or cream cheese alongside

Storage: Keep refrigerated and use within 3 to 5 days of delivery. Store in the original punnet with the lid slightly ajar to allow airflow. However, do not wash microherbs until immediately before use. Moisture causes rapid deterioration. Furthermore, use as soon as possible after delivery for the finest flavour and condition. Delivered fresh, harvested to order and ready to garnish.

However you use it, Micro Garlic Chives Punnet brings a freshness and quality to any dish that dried or older alternatives simply cannot provide. Moreover, cooking with genuinely fresh herbs and garnishes is one of the most immediate ways to raise the standard of any kitchen.
