Jersey Fresh Tip #1

KEEP FRESH HERBS FRESHER, LONGER

To keep fresh herbs longer, be sure to first, clean them off by rinsing them under cold running water. Give them a fresh cut at the bottom of the stems.
Moisten a paper towel with cold water and squeeze out any excess water. Wrap the herbs loosely with the paper towel and store in a large zip-top bag in the fridge - preferably in one of the crisper drawers where you would keep other vegetables.
Once the herbs start to wilt, or, God forbid, grow mold (yuck!), throw them out.
