Fresh herbs should be considered not only as an ingredient that can enhance the taste of many dishes, but also as a useful supplement that provides our body with vitamins and microelements.
But to enjoy all these benefits to the fullest, you need to know how to store dill, parsley and other types of greens.
In this article, you will learn three ways to help you keep your leaves and stems green, fresh and tasty for as long as possible.
In paper towels
Greens are stored especially well if placed in a plastic container, first wrapped in a paper towel.
The napkin will absorb excess moisture, which causes rotting processes.
In the freezer
In this case, it is worth chopping the greens and filling the ice-making molds with them. After that, fill the cells and send the mold to the freezer.
These ice cubes can be used to make soup and other dishes.
Using a microwave
Greens can be stored not only frozen, but also dry.
To do this, chop the plant parts, put them on a plate and microwave for 2 minutes. Store dried herbs in hermetically sealed jars.
