What garnish is used on the Chophouse Corn?

• A. Parsley
• B. Green onions
• C. Minced chives
• D. Dill

Answer: (C)

Garnish choices are about balancing flavor, aroma, and appearance. For Chophouse Corn, the goal is a subtle finish that brightens the dish without overpowering the corn’s sweetness and buttery richness. Minced chives provide a light onion-like note and a fresh green speck that complements both the corn and any steakhouse butter used. They’re delicate, distribute evenly, and don’t alter the dish’s profile too strongly. Parsley adds color but a more neutral herbal flavor; green onions bring a stronger bite and chunkier pieces that can dominate; dill would impart a distinctly tangy, aromatic note that doesn’t pair with corn in this context. So minced chives best achieve the intended balance.
