The humble chive has been used in cooking for over 5000 years, and was a favorite ingredient of the Ancient Romans who believed it was a source of physical prowess.
You most likely know chives as the green stalks of the plant, which are shredded for you in condiments, especially for fish, potatoes and soups. The flowers of chives can also be used in salads, and if you’re into organic solutions, it has insect-repelling properties that can be used in your garden to control pests.
