Info

Alternatively, you can dry leaves of plants by leaving them in the same location on a grilled baking tray (the grills are important as they allow circulation of air). Some people advocate the use of drying in an oven at a low heat. Whilst this method works (though you have to be careful not to cook them), it isn’t really necessary unless you are in a huge hurry to get them dry or don’t have the space to hang them up. Herb Salts Another excellent method of storage is to create herb salts, which are useful for seasoning a variety of dishes. The following method works well for chives, thyme, rosemary, oregano and basil. These are very simple to make. Sprinkle a desired amount of salt over a metal baking tray (an easy way to get the right amount is to fill up by two thirds the container you are going to use). Next chop up a handful of the herb that you wish to use and sprinkle that evenly on top of the salt. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes or so at 200 degrees centigrade. When dry place the salt and herb mixture into your container. Freezing Not all herbs are suitable for drying, however. Fennel and chives are two examples where results will be disappointing. In this case you could instead resort to freezing. In fact there is an argument that freezing is a better option than drying, as it tends to preserve more vitamins and minerals. It is a particularly suitable method for Basil, which when dried tends to lose its aroma and zing. In fact, in Italy, perhaps the country that makes most use of Basil, freezing is commonplace and frozen Basil is sold in supermarkets all over. Before freezing give the herbs a wash and let them dry off excess moisture in a colander. Place them in resealable plastic bags, and make sure you label it. One Last Thing Herbs should never be stored in damp humid environments, as this will cause them to rot. 194
Creating an Herbal Research Project Creating an herbal is a lifetime’s work and it’s a good idea to find a good quality hardback blank book that will last for many years to record the information. You may even wish to find a book that has a binding that can be undone, which will allow the addition or re-ordering of leaves. It can be a lovely idea to press specimens of different herbs to be included on the pages. A quick way to press plants is to put a cutting between two leaves of thick blotting paper and place a heavy book on top for a few days. By then the plant should be flattened and ready to glue into the herbal. Alternatively, those that are artistic can go about painting or drawing the herb. All kinds of information can be recorded: where the herb was found, growing conditions, folkloric and magickal information, medicinal and culinary uses etc. Over time this will be a wonderful resource both for you and your family. 195
