Chives: Mild and Versatile
Chives, or Allium schoenoprasum, are September's herb of the month. Chives are a perennial herb that is completely edible--even the blossoms.
Chives, as with many of the herbs I discuss and use myself, are easy to grow; however, they do need for the weather to cool off a bit (where the highs are not in the 90s). Chives can be grown from seed, but you may find it worthwhile to transplant already established chive plants instead: I know I do.
This herb revels in full sunlight. Water sparingly in order to concentrate the flavors. Divide the clumps every two to three years or so.
In the kitchen, chives are delightfully versatile. Try fresh chives snipped over a hearty potato soup, mixed with cream cheese to top a bagel, added to many vegetables--not just potatoes, and many more uses. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination. Bon appetit!
