Herbs drying

Posted June 12, 2010 by Jimmy Cracked-Corn in 2010, future plans, garden, raised bed.

My wife trimmed up her herb bed and had several things that were enough to dry and save. They are growing fast now!

We need to get a dehydrator or make a solar one because it takes a long time just sitting in the open air.

One response to this post.

    Another option (though I don’t know if it’s very practical in the summertime) is to put them in the oven, on its verrry lowest temperature (~140*F, maybe). I haven’t tried it, myself, but I know of others who dry fruit and make jerky &etc. this way and it seems to work. Though I also wouldn’t want my oven on for hours on end (at any temperature!) during the summer 🙂
