Traditionally used in European cuisine, this herb adds a unique flavor profile that works in beautiful harmony with the rest of the ingredients in our potato salad.
Not to be overlooked, lovage seeds have multiple health benefits, enhancing the nutritive value of our hearty potato salad. Rich in vitamins B and C, these seeds are also a good source of dietary fiber and minerals such as iron, which contributes to overall metabolism and immune system strength.
