Keep Fresh Herbs Fresh!

Name: Keep Fresh Herbs Fresh!
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 bunch of freshly cut herbs

This year my herb garden has been growing so fast. I cant use them up quickly enough. But I need to harvest them to stop them from getting overgrown. So, just cut and store for a few days like this. Then I dry some. The herbs in the picture were cut days ago!

Steps

1

This method of keeping your herbs fresh works on both long stemmed herbs or shorter harvested herbs.
2

Harvest your herbs. I harvested parsley and dill.
3

Take a tall glass and fill it halfway with cool water.
4

Just place your fresh cut herbs in the glass and store in a cooler area of your kitchen away from direct sunlight.
5

For shorter cut herbs such as sage, thyme , just use a shorter glass with same cool water halfway up the glass.
6

Herbs will stay fresh like this for 4 days at least.

This method also works for store bought fresh herbs.
