With this trick you won't have to throw away the rest of your greens.

Fresh greens don't cost a penny in the store, but growing your own crop takes time and effort.

Therefore, in any case, housewives try not to waste greens and use them all.

To keep parsley, basil, dill or other greens longer, it is worth taking a closer look at the tricks of chefs.

To do this, you need to lay out a paper towel. Place the greens you bought or picked in the garden on it, and then lightly sprinkle with cool water.

Next, you need to wrap the greens in a towel. You need to twist it tightly enough, and then put it in the refrigerator.

As a result, the product is stored in this form for up to 7 days without any taste qualities. And the greens will look as if they were just brought from the garden.

The optimal storage temperature is no higher than +4 °C. Modern refrigerators have a special compartment for greens. If there is none, you can simply put them on the bottom shelf.
