Parsley (Petroselinum crispum var. neapolitanum) is an aromatic flowering plant in the Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) family. The plant is indigenous to the Mediterranean region but can also be found in Europe. It is widely cultivated as a spice, herb, and even a vegetable. It is most commonly used as an ingredient in cooking, but is also a popular garnish for many prepared meals.
