I decided to try my hand at perserving some basil and cilantro this past weekend. But I didn't think to take any pics until after I had preserved the cilantro. For the cilantro I just washed it and then chopped it, added it to ice cub trays and poured a little water in each cube section.
Next I decided to do some basil. I dipped the leaves into a bowl of water and swished it around.
Then I laid it on paper towels to try. I blotted with another paper towel on top.
I then added the leaves and some olive oil to my magic bullet blender and pulsed it.
Then added it to the tray!
I then placed the tray in the freezer. Once they were frozen I placed the cilantro into one freezer bag, and the basil into another. I'll let you know how they are once I use them.
