How To Dry Herbs
Work best for:
- Air drying works best for low-moisture like marjoram, oregano, rosemary and dill.
What to do:
- Trim fresh herbs at an angle to protect the rest of the plant. Put the bundle of herbs, stem-side up.
- Hang or over a week, ideally in a cool, dark place.
Storage:
- Herbs are best stored in airtight glass containers. They're uses range from cooking, tea, tincture, even decoration.
Drying:
- Gather 5-10 branches together and tie with string or a rubber band. The smaller the bundle, the easier and faster they will dry.
