Curly parsley is another summer favourite herb that can uplift the freshness of your meals. Although the herb is quite slow to grow in comparison to other summer herbs, the densely ruffled dark-green leaves of this warm season herb have a fresh, earthy taste with hints of nutmeg and clove. Curly parsley can be used fresh or dried, however, the fresh parsley leaves are mostly as a garnish for a pop of green colour and flavour. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting, cultivate this versatile herb right in your backyard or kitchen garden.
