Storing Basil

Basil dies quickly so the best way to store it:

  • Put stalks in Jar and cover with Oil
  • Dry Basil and wrap in Plastic -store in fridge

  • ​Dry Basil in dehydrator or Freeze Dryer
  • ​Preserve Leaves by layering in Salt. salt can then be used over veggies or in soups and sauces.​.
