Parsley is an annual herb in the celery family that is native to
Europe and the Mediterranean region. The flavor enhancing quality of the
fresh or dried leaf of the plant is enjoyed in virtually every world
cuisine. The herb is indispensable to French cooks, who use it in just
about everything. It is found alongside cilantro in Latin American
salsas and accompanies mint in Middle Eastern tabbouleh.
Powdered parsley presents an easy and convenient way to add flavor and
nutrients to baked goods, dressings, dips, soups and many other foods.
The powder is also easy to encapsulate as a dietary supplement.
