What is it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An herb salad is a salad made from fresh, leafy green herbs. It can include parsley, cilantro, watercress, mint, basil, chervil, or dill. And just about any fragrant leafy herb works in this recipe. The herbs you use depends on the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Occasionally edible flowers, such as chive blossoms or violets, are also added to the salad. Some cooks add the herbs to a bed of other leafy greens, such as lettuce, arugula, or bitter greens.  The salad is typically served with a vinaigrette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
