Fines Herbes is a blend of high quality herbs that add a wonderful flavour to dishes. It is a combination of Chervil, Parsley, Chives and French Tarragon and is often a part of haute cuisine. Sometimes gathering the fresh herbs is not possible (or just too much messing around), so we have dry herbs to fill the gap. These are delicate herbs that generally don’t stand up to long cooking times, so they usually go in right at the end of cooking.
Fines Herbes seems to be first mentioned in the mid 1700’s but was given a spotlight by famous French chef Auguste Escoffier. Use them to make the classic omelette aux fines herbes, sprinkling them in in the final stages of cooking or over the top as a garnish. They also work very well with white meats and fish, adding a delicious fresh herby flavour with notes of anise, pepper and onion.
As with all herbs and spices, add a little at a time to get the flavour you want. You can always add more, but taking it out after application can be impossible!
