Have you ever wished you had some fresh herbs from your garden in the middle of winter? Consider freezing chopped fresh herbs in ice-cube trays. Drop a teaspoon or two of herbs into each cube and fill with a little water or broth of our choice (chicken, beef, vegetable). Pop our the cubes to use in soups and sauces.
Here is a

I've been looking around for some advice on this subject and I am so thankful you posted this up. We have had quite a robust herb growing season and we wanted to be able to carry that over into the winter months as live in NH. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGreat article. You can also add a little bit of olive oil along with the herbs when freezing in ice cubes. This is great for making pesto or other sauces.
