Meaning and Origin:
Chervil (Anthriscus cerefolium) is an annual herb in the parsley family (Apiaceae). Its name comes from the Greek term chairophullon, which means "rejoice leaf" or "joy leaf." This name is thought to refer to the herb's pleasant and refreshing flavor.
The Greeks and Romans used chervil as a culinary and medicinal herb. It was also used in ancient Egypt and is believed to have originated in the Caucasus and Western Asia. Chervil was brought to Europe by the Romans and has been cultivated there for centuries.
Chervil is still used as a culinary herb today, especially in French and Italian cuisine. It has a mild, slightly anise-like flavor and is often used in salads, soups, and sauces. It is also a good source of vitamins A and C.
