Down_the_Rabbit_Hole Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 A while ago I bought some fresh rosemary sprigs. They came in a plastic box and were found in the refrigerated section of the fresh produce isle so I stored them just like they did...in the plastic box in my fridge. Sadly they turned black and icky, same with the fresh thyme I bought. So how should I store the fresh herbs? Should I dry them out ? If I need to dry them, whats the best way?

Down_the_Rabbit_Hole Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 DUH! I have always bought fresh parsley, chopped and put it in the freezer. Why didn't I apply the same process to the other herbs? Thanks for waking my brain cells up.:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down_the_Rabbit_Hole Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 My grocery store recently started selling smaller quantities of herbs. Basically it's enough for 1 or 2 meals. I love that. I also like to buy some of those herbs in the squeeze tubes because those last awhile. I saw these tubes, they were by the fresh herbs. So these are good... I will have to try them.
