Who still knows the tuberous-rooted chervil? A forgotten vegetable since the 18th and 19th centuries. Short, thick taproots with a sweet, mild, slightly chestnut-like flavour. Despite the name, it is not related to common chervil; in fact, the leaves are slightly poisonous. Delicious with a meat stew or in a purée, these tubers are much better known in France. We offer the common wild tuberous-rooted chervil, which forms excellent tubers.
