Best Microgreen Herbs for French Plating
French-style plating often needs herbs that are aromatic but not loud. Curled chervil is the classic quiet herb for eggs, fish, soups, and sauces. Bronze fennel adds anise and line work for seafood and citrus. Parsley is familiar and clean. Sorrel brings natural lemony acidity for fish, cream, and goat cheese.
