Approximate kitchen reference. Not a lab label. Brands and cuts vary.
Origin
Mediterranean; flat-leaf (Italian) parsley is the cook's default.
Herbal & culinary notes
Vitamin K-rich garnish. Large medicinal doses of parsley oil are not kitchen advice.
How to store
Fridge like a bouquet in water, or wrap damp and bagged. Flat-leaf lasts about a week.
Food safety
Wash well. Soil can hide in curly leaves. Pat dry before chopping.
Food hazards
Produce contamination risk if unwashed. Pregnant people should avoid medicinal-dose parsley supplements; culinary garnish is fine.
