Storing Fresh Herbs
I had a few questions about storing fresh herbs. I’ve kept some with their tips in a glass with clean water (changed daily) and others unwashed in a ziploc bag in the refrigerator. I think it does depend on the herb. Martha Stewart uses the ziploc bag method. I found another website that said to store them in a bag with a damp paper towel. I’d love to hear what works for everyone else.

The paper towel method is best ( if my boyfriend would only follow this method). I do store herbs in salad spinner. Those are for the days that I return from the farmers market with all kinds of herbs. Placing in water is only good for heartier herbs like bay leaf, sage and basil.
