How to store parsley and keep it cool for a year: the chefs’ method

The first step is to  wash the parsley with water  . In this process, you remove any leaves and twigs that appear dry or damaged. After washing the parsley, spread it out to dry on a few sheets of paper towels.

Fill a glass halfway with water. It is best if the glass is made of glass, as this material is the best for storing food. Now dip the  parsley stems  into the jar as you would for cut flowers. Then cover the top with a plastic bag intended for food and used for the freezer. Secure the plastic bag with a rubber band that ends at the top of the glass.

Use scissors to cut  the two outer surfaces of the envelope to  allow air to circulate. At this point, you can put the glass jar containing the parsley in the refrigerator. The ideal position is of course the position intended for the bottles on the inside door of the refrigerator.

If you don’t have enough space in the refrigerator, you can also store parsley by putting it  in a pre-cut jar . Before closing the jar, place a sheet of absorbent paper between the lid and the opening. The jar can be placed in the refrigerator, preferably upside down.
