Aromatic herbs<\/strong> have been used very often in cooking for centuries. This is because these herbs can be preserved over time thanks to the drying process<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n But let’s go step by step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Aromatic herbs are often used to give more flavor to<\/strong> many recipes and for this reason many decide to grow them at home or outdoors directly in the ground. Obviously, to do it in the best possible way, it is necessary to know the characteristics of the aromatic plant that you want to grow<\/strong> . In fact, some of them go into vegetative dormancy during the colder season until the beginning of spring<\/strong> . So that is exactly why you can start the drying process so that you can<\/strong> wear them during all seasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On this page you can find out how you can dry your own herbs<\/strong> and you can also choose the method that best suits<\/strong> your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In fact, you can choose to dry your herbs<\/strong> in the oven, on the wood stove<\/strong> , or with electric dryers<\/strong> . At the same time, you can also choose to take the twigs and hang them upside down tied to<\/strong> a wire so that they dry completely naturally<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to know what is the best and easiest method to do it, just read below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before starting, it must be emphasized that the most appropriate time to dry your aromatic herbs is when they are about to bloom<\/strong> . However, even in this favorable moment, we should never exaggerate, but rather act judiciously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In fact, it is necessary to select the largest leaves and those that are placed highest<\/strong> . You also have to do the same to take some twigs and place them face down<\/strong> . To do a good job you have to grab them from the highest part, so never from the<\/strong> base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Herbs that can be reverse processed are rosemary<\/strong> , lavender<\/strong> , thyme<\/strong> , oregano<\/strong> , and mint<\/strong> . In addition, it is necessary to avoid joining too many twigs because in this way the air may not circulate correctly and this<\/strong> could lead to the formation of mold. An epilogue of this type would clearly compromise the entire drydown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Therefore, it is necessary to place the twigs where there is good air circulation<\/strong> and, in addition, they should be placed away from direct rays of the sun<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n During this process , it is important to prevent dust from forming on the herbs<\/strong> . So you have to cover everything with a cloth<\/strong> , for example muslin, which can guarantee good air passage. Don’t forget that this process will take between 7 and 10 days<\/strong> . These days will be used by the plant to lose all the water it contains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another easy technique to use is to dry herbs on shelves<\/strong> . This is a job that should be done in the comfort of one room in your home. To do this, you have to take a mosquito net that is usually used to make mosquito nets and make<\/strong> bunk beds or individual trays. In these trays you have to place your herbs in them to dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also do this job by drying everything in the oven at the lowest temperature<\/strong> and leaving the door slightly open at all times. This will prevent stagnation from forming due to moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Don’t forget to turn the herbs from time to time<\/strong> so that the drying can appear uniform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once your herbs are dry, you can place them in airtight glass containers<\/strong> and then keep them closed and then place them in the cupboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Good luck with your work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Aromatic herbs have been used very often in cooking for centuries.
