Chives ... The smallest and most delicate member of the onion family, chives are a popular herb used in European cookery. They have long, thin green blades that are hollow inside. They have a mild, grassy flavour similar to baby spring onions or young leeks. There is also an Asian variety of chive called Chinese chives, garlic chives or kuchai.
Buyer's guide:
Chives are in season in spring and summer. Fresh chives are widely available from supermarkets and garden centres. Do not substitute fresh chives for dried, as the finished dish will taste musty.
Storage:
Keep fresh chives refrigerated for up to three days.
Preparation:
Snip chives with scissors instead of chopping them, and do not subject them to much cooking as they are delicate. Instead, use chives in garnishes, salads, egg mayonnaise sandwiches, vegetable stocks, soups, creamy sauces, potato dishes and omelettes, adding the herb to the dish just before serving. Purple-blue chive flowers are also eaten and used as a garnish.
Hope you may enjoy this recipe suggestion soon ...
All the best Jan

This looks so good, and thanks for the info on the chives.
Oh my gosh this looks so delicious! I am going to make it. I have plenty of chives in a pot and love putting them in recipes. Betsy
When is dinner? This looks delicious, Jan! :)
Fabulous. Definitely one to try.
Hello Jan! If I could only make this without the butter. So far I have lost 2kilos on my no fat, low carb diet, and feel great. It looks delicious.
Love this omelette Look wonderful !!
I would eat that.
That sounds delicious!
Swapping the bacon for mushrooms I often eat this. Usually for dinner... Yum.
I like to make omelettes and am always looking for different combinations to put in them. This looks great, thanks Jan :)
I love baked dishes like this. I'll have to omit the bacon because I don't eat it but everything else is a go.
A good reminder of a simple dish - thanks Jan :D)
I had a garden full of chives in one of my previous houses. I miss having them ready at hand.
My Sue loves bacon and eggs but from a frying pan. This is perfect for her if I can "lose" the frying pan for a day or two.
Yummy!! Thanks Jan!
Bacon and eggs. Two of my most favourite things!
