- Chives are a member of the onion and garlic family, originating from Southeast Asia, they are an essential addition to many dishes.
- Onion and garlic chives are distinctively different but only in flavour, the growing technique remains the same.
- Chives love the bright, sunny position in a garden with free draining soil, plant them into raised garden beds where possible.
- They need regular feeding and replenishment, make sure to give the crop a boost before and after each take.
- Brendan Pang has featured on MasterChef and TV Shows like Our State on a Plate, known as the dumpling King he will be taking on the garlic chive herb for some pan fried pockets.
