What’s the best way to store fresh parsley? I’ve been trimming the bottom of the stems, standing them in a jar or water in the fridge.

They still droop!

I wrap them in a damp paper towel and store in a zip bag. Lasts a couple weeks in the crisper.

If in the fridge put a plastic bag over them. The fridge is a bit too cold.

The counter is okay if the house isn’t too warm.

I googled this for cilantro and it lasts sooo much longer now. Wrap in paper towel and put it back in the thin plastic bag you first got it in from the store.

You can cut it off and dry it in the microwave. I use a paper plate. You can also chop and freeze.

I keep a pot growing on my window sill all winter.

Just put them in a jar of water on the counter. The fridge is too cold and dry.

The only way I can keep it is to not wash it until use. Then I wash the batch, whatever I don’t use I put in a container w,/ a paper towel.

Usually lasts a couple of weeks
