I actually really like parsley. I find a lot of people just think it has no flavor or is only used as a garnish. I put it in almost everything I make for a little color, and I like the taste. I think a lot of it is because I have the cilantro soap gene, so I have to substitute cilantro and I usually use parsley. Of course, I use rosemary, thyme, basil, etc, but for a garnish, and a finisher, parsley is my go to.
Parsley is important in some recipes. It’s versatile also. For instance when I make manicotti or lasagna, I always put parsley in the cheese mix and it’s not the same without it. Also I put it in eggs.
