Nutritional Value

Chives are grown year-round in China. The sulfur compound propylene sulfide in chives is responsible for their slightly spicy, tangy flavor. These sulfur compounds have antibacterial and antioxidant properties.

Chive dishes can boost immunity, fight inflammation, and support cardiovascular health. They also contain nutrients like vitamin A, which supports cell growth and strengthens the immune system.

Chives pair well with meat, seafood, tofu, and soups. Make a great sauce to keep in your refrigerator for just about anything!
