Guess that's why I'm always so~o~o anxious for that first salad with Sweet Basil!!!<br />Fondly,<br />PatPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07777939835671223780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1594090260353327800.post-42612279484119555122013-08-11T20:59:59.679-05:002013-08-11T20:59:59.679-05:00Hi Marlis,

I make pesto by the case with basil, cilantro and parsley, until I run out of freezer space, then I just layer basil leaves in a ziplock freezer bag. They all freeze together and I just take it out, smack it on the counter to break off a handful and throw it in whatever I am cooking. My Oregeno, Rosemary, Thyme, and Sage is harvested all winter. The only herb that doesn't winter over is the basil. Everything else I cover with a deep layer of pine needles to insulate. When I have excess tomatoes, I will chop, mix with herbs, onions, garlic, etc and freeze it in bags as a marinara sauce starter. I Love summer and herbs! dianneDiannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08182893353843458812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1594090260353327800.post-32930258050921583102013-08-11T18:47:10.490-05:002013-08-11T18:47:10.490-05:00I have to get one of those ice cube trays!
