How To Store Fresh Herbs

Find out the best way to store fresh herbs so they stay fresh as long as possible. Whether you grow herbs in your garden or buy them from the grocery store, this will keep them from turning yellow and slimy much longer so you can enjoy green and vibrant herbs in your food.
You can use this method to store parsley, cilantro, dill, thyme and rosemary.
I absolutely love adding fresh herbs to my food. It makes it look beautiful and makes the flavors really pop.
When you have your herbs stored this way, not only will they stay fresh longer, they are so much easier to chop when they aren't sopping wet. You'll probably use them more often too when they are conveniently ready to go!

    You are a good teacher AND include so many points that go beyond just storage, such as the convenience of the paper towell method. Thank-you!!

    This channel needs more views. I'm digging your how tos. Just knowledge from someone who knows what is what and not 20 minutes of sponsorship messages. I wouldn't mind if you got sponsored though you have thoroughly good content and no wasted watch time!

    Why can I not just get a straight answer on how to do this. This is my 5th video. I'm so annoyed. You really felt the need to explain a salac spinner?

  • @OlgasFlavorFactory

    What exactly did you not get an answer to? I’d be happy to clarify. I’m glad that you know how to use a salad spinner, but many people don’t know how it works or how to use it, so I explained it for them. (I know this because every time I show the salad spinner in my videos, I get multiple questions about it.) Have a lovely evening.

    I think this is a wonderful video! I was surprised that the “vase” method didn’t win. Now I know how to store herbs and will no longer avoid buying the fresh ones. Keep up the great work!
