Care & Storage
For Eating Fresh: For short-term storage (1-2 days) snip the ends of the stalks and place them in cup of clean water. Refresh the water as needed. You can also store parsley in a perforated plastic bag in your fridge for up to a week.
To Dry: Bundle the stalks with a rubber band and hang upside down in a warm, dry, dark place. Once dry, store herbs in an airtight container in a dark place.
To Freeze: Wash, drain, and chop the parsley. (Tip: Ice trays make good herb freezing containers. They provide ready-made single meal servings.)
