Chives

Chive is a mild, onion-flavored herb from the Allium family commonly used as a fresh garnish in European, Asian, and American cuisines; it’s prized for its bright green stems and delicate flavor rather than bulk. Per 100 g it is very light in energy and supplies 2.5g of fiber, while also contributing vitamin C, vitamin K and small amounts of plant omega‑3s. Nutritionally it’s a nutrient-dense garnish: useful for adding flavor with minimal calories, providing vitamin K for blood and bone health and antioxidant compounds (including some glucosinolates) that support general health.
