Darn, they were so cool looking and each "cube" was equal to exactly on T, so no cutting and measuring required! Just pop out a T of the herb in the recipe.

Just curious, I may start freezing my own. -------------------- Have a blessed day!...Rachel stable and sooooooo thankful! I have IBS but it doesn't have me!

For most recipes, a tbsp of water isn't going to make a difference, and you can just throw the cubes right in, frozen. I guess the only exception would be when you add the herb right at the end - I have some recipes that call for adding cilantro *right* before serving, for example - in that case I'd thaw them, not because the water will make a difference, but just because I don't want chunks of frozen stuff in my finished dish.

(m)       #209872 - 08/30/05 05:15 PM Edit Reply Quote Sand Reged: 12/13/04 Posts: 4490 Loc: West Orange, NJ (IBS-D) So if you just freeze them without putting them in water, does that mean you can use them in uncooked dishes, like putting thawed cilantro in guacamole and thawed basil in Heather's Italian Lemon Tuna Sandwiches? Also, do you freeze the herbs as whole leaves or already chopped? We've got a bumper crop of cilantro and parsley (although Joe is going to try his hand at pesto for himself) and I'd love to save some.

Once they're frozen, transfer them to a ziploc bag. Then when you want them, POOF! You just throw in an ice cube or two and you've got flavour!!!!

I don't see why you can't use them in fresh dishes, although I've heard they can get a little discolored by freezing. Supposedly if you blanch them first they retain their color better, but I didn't bother. -------------------- "Anyone can exercise, but this kind of lethargy takes real discipline." -Garfield Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Thanks, Kree.
