Fresh herbs enhance dishes by elevating flavors and promoting health, reducing reliance on processed condiments. Keeping them fresh is crucial for maximizing their potential.
To store fresh herbs effectively, wash them, pat them dry, and wrap them in a damp paper towel before placing them in a container to keep them fresh for 2-3 weeks.
For soft herbs like basil, it's better to store them in a glass jar with water after trimming the stems, creating a vibrant herb bouquet.
While hard herbs benefit from the container method, soft herbs have specific storage needs that, when met, help maximize freshness and usability in cooking.
