The chefs' technique for keeping parsley fresh for a long time
The most effective method is to treat parsley like a bouquet of flowers.
- Start by washing it thoroughly in cold water, then remove any damaged leaves or stems.
- Dry it gently with absorbent paper: this step is essential to avoid excess moisture.
- Next, fill a glass jar halfway with water.
- Place the parsley stems in it, keeping them straight, as if in a vase.
- Cover the whole thing with a resealable freezer bag or food bag, secured with a rubber band around the jar. To allow the herb to breathe, make two small slits on the sides of the bag with scissors.
- Place the jar in the refrigerator, ideally in the door compartment intended for bottles.
Thanks to this method, the parsley remains fresh, crisp and fragrant for several weeks, sometimes more than a month.
