Herb Cubes
This is the perfect recipe to preserve an excess of fresh herbs 🌿, whether they're on their last good day in your fridge or growing in an over-abundance in your garden. All you need is olive oil and an ice cube tray 🧊.
Servings: 1 tray
Ingredients
- basil leaves or any fresh herb leaves
- olive oil or avocado oil
Instructions
- Wash and throughly dry the herbs. You can also dry them easily using a salad spinner. Roughly chop the herbs and distribute them across the wells of an ice cube tray. Top each well with olive oil until the herbs are submerged.
- Place the tray in the freezer and leave until fully frozen through. You can keep the cubes in the tray, with a tightly fitted lid, or you can remove the cubes from the tray and transfer to a tightly sealed ziploc bag or food storage container.
- Thaw one before you use it or simply pop it in a hot pan and enjoy.
