DESCRIPTION:
Italian parsley, or flat-leaf parsley, is a highly aromatic, nutrient-dense herb native to the Mediterranean with a sweet, robust, and slightly peppery flavor. Used extensively in cooking, it stands up well to heat in soups, sauces, and stews. It is packed with vitamins A, C, and E, plus iron, and thrives in full sun. Ideal for cooking (stews, sauces, stuffings) due to its resilience, but also used fresh in salads, pesto, or as a garnish.
