One of the things I miss most about summer, especially where I live, is the availability of fresh produce and herbs. This winter I decided to do something about that and started a little herb garden inside my house rather than having to rely solely on the dried variations in my spice rack. The problem is, I'm not using them fast enough and I hate to see them go to waste or wither away and die. I started to look for some alternate ways of preserving them, and have found a few good methods. The easiest way is to pick the fresh herbs off the plant (or use the ones you have bought at the grocery store), lay them out on a cookie sheet and place it in the freezer for about an hour - this prevents them from clumping together or freezing into a block. Once they are frozen, put them in a freezer bag, and toss back into the freezer until you are ready to use them. Don't forget to label the bags, they all look the same when they are frozen, and you can't smell them to tell the difference.
