Parsley is loved far and wide for its light, fresh scent and a bright, herbaceous taste that elevates the flavor of many dishes. The versatile herb is commonly used in American, European and Middle Eastern cooking.
Native to Mediterranean soil, parsley was a popular flavoring and garnish among both the ancient Greeks and Romans. Centuries later, parsley is still going strong: It’s being chopped and added to salads, used as an aromatic garnish on pasta and soup, blended into pesto sauce, infused into salad dressing, and much more.
Aside from its culinary uses, parsley also offers many powerful health benefits. It’s low in calories, yet rich in important nutrients such as vitamins A, K and C. Vitamin A contributes to immunity and eye health, while vitamin K supports bone and heart health. Vitamin C acts as a powerful antioxidant, protecting cells from damage caused by free radicals. Parsley can also improve digestive health by stimulating the digestive tract.
Fresh parsley and parsley oil can also balance oil production, decrease inflammation and prevent skin discoloration, which is why parsley lends itself to luxurious skin care and beauty products such as moisturizers, serums and eye creams.
