how to chop herbs

Thank you to those of you who have been emailing us to say how useful you find these cooking videos Danny is doing.

When he and I first met, I felt competent in the kitchen, but not necessarily confident. I chopped fresh herbs hesitantly, in wide swaths, going too fast at times. Danny taught me to slow down and enjoy the entire process.

(That's the gist of our cookbook, as well.)

Danny and I both would like you to know the small joy of chopping rosemary fine and basil into a chiffonade. Plus, he shows you how to use basil as a cologne.

Here you go — how to chop fresh herbs.
