Are parsley and kinchay / kintsay the same? Yung parsley ba ay yung kinchay / kintsay?

PARSLEY = KINTSAY?

Yung parsley ba ay yung kinchay / kintsay? 

(Are parsley and kinchay / kintsay the same?  )

Pwede ba yung kintsay na pamparegla? 

Yung kintsay / kinchay lang ang meron dito sa amin, pwede ba yun?

 

Is Parsley the same herb/plant as Kintsay / Kinchay? Yes  and No .  

Yes, Kintsay (or Kinchay)  is a variety of Parsley. It is internationally known as Cilatro, Flat-leaf Parsley, Straight leaf Parsley, Italian Parsley, Chinese Parsley

And No.  In the Philippine setting or sense, when we say "Parsley", we generally refer to the curly-leaf variety also known internationally as French Curly-leaf Parsley, Curled Parsley or Curly Parsley


It is the curly leaf   and not the flat leaf  Kintsay / Kinchay that I was referring to as "parsley" in my blog about herbal abortion/miscarriage  that I wrote 7 years ago.  https://herbalabortionphilippines.blogspot.com/2013/07/herbal-abortion-experiences-in.html

In this blog post, I will try to help the reader avoid confusing the two parsley varieties by providing pictures comparing the two. I also added pictures of the two other popular (and similar) herbs, wansoy ( coriander) and celery which  are also often confused for "parsley" because of their similar looks.  The set of  undeniable similarities among these herbs is not really a mystery since they are all members of the taxonomic genus Apium and the family Apiaceae, a family of aromatic flowering plants sometimes referred to simply as  the Parsley Family.
