What is a Basil Chiffonade?

Chiffonade is a French cooking technique in which herbs or leafy green vegetables (such as spinach and basil) are cut into long, thin strips. This is generally accomplished by stacking leaves, rolling them tightly, then cutting across the rolled leaves with a sharp knife, producing fine ribbons.

Check out this video that demonstrates this technique:

    links from TechnoratiWe ate at this nice little Italian restaurant. For our appetizer we ordered fresh tomato and mozzarella. They served it with a little drop of pesto that was just amazing. The aroma was heavenly! [IMG Fresh Basil]Earlier this week I shared a recipe forChicken Portobelloon my blog which called for some pesto. A few of my readers have asked for a healthy pesto recipe, so here it is! 1 cup fresh basil, firmly packed 1/2 cup parsley 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese

    I’ve been looking for some great recipes using Pesto Sauce (something I’ve recently become utterly smitten with). This sounds amazing and I’ll bet it’d be heavenly with a loaf of crispy Italian bread.

    Oh, yeah, I totally see this in my future.
