Chives

Using dried Chives are the best convenient and long-lasting alternative to fresh chives, offering a subtle, savory onion flavour for a variety of dishes.

Dried chives are highly versatile in cooking. They are often added to dishes where their flavour can infuse over time, such as in soups, stews, and sauces. They're also used in egg dishes like scrambled eggs, omelettes, or quiches, and can enhance potato dishes, such as mashed potatoes, roasted
potatoes, or potato salad.

Dried chives, like their fresh counterparts, retain many of the health benefits associated with the herb. They are rich in vitamins, particularly vitamin A, vitamin K, and folate. Dried chives also contain essential minerals like calcium, potassium, and iron, which are important for bone health, muscle function, and overall well-being.

The antioxidants in chives, such as flavonoids, help combat oxidative stress and may reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Furthermore, chives are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and may aid digestion, support immune health, and improve heart health due to their mild diuretic effects .
