Question:

What is the best way to store fresh mint leaves?


Answers:
still on the stem?, then in a jar of water half filled and a plastic bag over the top not in the fridge but in a cool place in the kitchen.
Off the stem, in a airtight plastic container in the fridge

If u freeze them they last like a lifetime. If you dont want to do that, you can just refrigerate it.

Dry it and keep in a cold place.

If you refridgerate any fresh herbs,put in a baggie with a little cold water.This helps them stay fresh.You still can't keep them for more than about a week,though. Frozen or dried they keep their flavor for 6 months to a year.
