Equipment
Ingredients
- basil
- chives
- cilantro
- dill
- mint
- oregano
- parsley
- rosemary
- thyme
- tarragon
Instructions
- Rinse the herbs and pat them dry with a paper towel. Chop as desired.
- Next, place the chopped herbs in an ice cube tray; from my experience, silicone trays work best.
- Fill each well with water, just enough to completely cover the herb mixture.
- Press the herbs into the water so they are fully submerged.
- Place the ice cube tray in the freezer and freeze for 3-4 hours.
- Once frozen, transfer the herbs into an airtight container or freezer-safe zip top bag labeled with each type of herb, and store in your freezer for up to 6 months.
- To use, place the cube in a small bowl to thaw and once the ice has melted carefully drain the water and pat dry.
