Brush off dirt or if real dirty rinse off. Shake off excess water and spread stalks out on newspaper. Do not dry any herbs in direct sunlight because it turns them black. I use the living room. Turn the stalks every other day and if you think you need more air circulation use a fan on the low speed. When the leaves can be crumbled just crunch them off the stalks. The dried stalks can be used to flavor stocks. |

Use stalks for making stock. I find frozen parsley keeps a better taste and colour than dried. To freeze, rinse the heads, pat dry, fill a plastic bag with whole heads, seal and freeze. When it's frozen, you can either keep it that way (I do) or save space by squashing the bag around a bit until the contents look like chopped parsley. I prefer to keep the heads frozen whole then take out as much as I need and crumble the leaves between my fingers before they defrost. Similar method here, I freeze portions in bank bags, whip one out of the freezer, quick smack, and it's perfect for sauce ;) |
