Leaf Celery (Kinchay)

ByMaria


My favorite herb to put in noodles is leaf celery or kinchay. It is a Chinese herb and it is a symbol of good fortune during the Chinese New Year. It adds a wonderful flavor to stirfry and all kinds of noodle recipes. I use it together with green onions. Their flavors combined makes food extraordinary delicious. I have to have it in the garden. It’s easy to grow and for me to have it all-year round, I just keep sowing them in the garden. I let some plants go to seed so I can collect them to make sure I can keep planting them in the herb garden.
