Description
The Gentle Green Finish
A member of the onion family with a personality all their own. These delicate little rings deliver a sweet, mellow onion note that's far softer than a raw onion, adding a light, colorful lift to creamy dishes, cold salads, eggs, and anything that needs a fresh green garnish. Beautiful over goat cheese, stirred into sour cream, or scattered across a baked potato.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do dried chives taste like fresh chives?
Similar, but softer: drying mellows the sharp onion bite into a gentler, sweeter flavor, so a slightly heavier hand than fresh is fine.
When should I add them to a dish?
Right at the end of cooking or as a garnish. Because the pieces are thin and delicate, prolonged heat dulls both their color and flavor.
How long do dried chives keep?
Stored sealed away from light and heat, they hold their color and flavor for about 24 months.
