Mitsuba

mitsuba Often referred to as Japanese parsley or as trefoil, this green herb is available in Japanese and Korean groceries. It has dark green stalks and bright green serrated leaves, three on each stem. It has a fresh slightly celery taste and is used as a garnish and flavoring in Japanese cooking, very much as Italians use flat-leaf parsley. Flat-leaf parsley may be substituted. Like parsley, mitsuba grows well in North American gardens if given a moist soil.
