22 pairings for Schnittlauch.

Kartoffel

classic

Bland starch, sharp green, and no cooking involved in the second half.

Allium sulphur needs a fat leash, and this is the shortest one.

Bland wet curd exists to be seasoned, and this is the seasoning.

Sharp allium green over a skin thin enough to taste through.

Two alliums-adjacent sharpnesses, but the chive is green where the radish is hot.

Kopfsalat

common

Allium sharpness without the crunch of raw onion.

Smoke, salt and oil need something green and thin cutting across.

Kaviar

common

Sulfur and green over metallic brine. The one herb that will not fight.

Butter

common

Compound butter, cold, on hot meat. The chive melts, not cooks.

Acid curd and green sting. Two sharp things pointing the same way.

Mild allium that does not shout over a very quiet vegetable.

Cheddar

common

Allium green over a heavy curd. It lightens without cutting.

Raw allium is the cheapest possible way to make this taste made rather than bought.

Little Gem

uncommon

Green allium, cut fine, so it sticks to the wet cut edge.

Buttermilch

uncommon

Thin sour dairy, blitzed green. A dressing with no oil in it.

Rapsöl

uncommon

Blitz it green and strain. Allium sulphur in suspension, held by the fat.

Auster

rare

Raw green allium instead of vinegar, so the sweetness survives.

Cocoa butter takes the green sulfur somewhere savoury and floral.
