Storing Fresh Parsley: 2 Tips To Store It Easily.
Do you want to keep parsley for a long time?
Fresh parsley can be kept for more than a day or two.
But when you have a lot of it, it's better to keep it longer.
Fortunately, there are some great grandma's tips for keeping herbs fresh better.
With our 2 storage tips, discover the different ways to keep it fresh longer.
1. The towel
Spread a small napkin on the table plan. Wash the parsley, drain it and lay it on the towel, spreading the strands well.
Fold the napkin like a "roll" cake and store it in the refrigerator. The fabric will absorb the excess moisture.
As soon as you need some herbs for cooking, you help yourself, then roll up the napkin again. Preserved like this, parsley holds well more than a week.
2. The glass of water
If you are thinking of consuming parsley quickly, this is the easiest way to keep the aromatics together. Put your bunch of parsley (with stems) in a glass or bowl filled with cool water in the refrigerator and be sure to change the liquid daily.
The parsley will not wilt from the first day, you can flavor your potatoes, salads, homemade omelets and other dishes for several days.

Savings made
Of course, there is freezing to keep the herbs fresh, but that can add up to the expense.
If you don't have Tupperware, you'll have to buy some or take some freezer bags. Count at least 2 € of investment. Certainly that's not much, but if you can save them, it's not bad either.
Our tips allow you to store parsley with what you already have at home: a napkin or a container. It's easy, it goes fast, we don't spend a lot and we like that!
