I have been doing some research on drying and storing herbs, but I am just getting confused on what I should and should not do, so I figured I would pick some brains here to hopefully be pointed in the right direction.
I am growing an indoor herb garden, and I have an excess of herbs at the moment. I don't want them to flower, nor do I want to waste them. As such, I am looking at drying and storing them, but I want to be sure I am not wasting time and flavor in the process.
I have successfully dried some thyme, but I was wondering how well basil (I have cinnamon, Thai, and sweet) and mint dry and if there are any special ways I should be storing them (freeze instead of dry to keep flavor better, ???)
Thanks in advance!
