Freezing Parsley

We even freeze the parsley that we get from the farm share. We will use the frozen parsley in soups, casseroles, pasta, and other things where we want the taste of the parsley, but the appearance is not material. 

Instructions:
Wash parsley. Spin in a salad spinner to remove as much water as possible. 
Optional step - Remove the parsley leaves from the stems. 
Place a silpat on a large cookie sheet. You could use wax paper in place of the silpat. 
Place the parsley leaves on the silpat. 
Cover whole sheet tightly with saran wrap and place in the freezer for more than 12 hours. 
Once it's frozen, move the parsley into a freezer bag.

  1. Froze our parsley also! I found something online about freezing them in "logs" - http://awaytogarden.com/growing-and-storing-a-year-of-parsley

    Again, because it allowed me to skip a step, i tried it! Will let you know how it turns out.
