How to store basil

Refrigerator Method

The first thing to do when you bring home freshly picked perilla leaves or those just bought from the market is to wash them in water, drain them and put them into a food storage bag. Then you can put them in the refrigerator's fresh-keeping layer in the vegetable cabinet. This method can preserve them for a relatively long time and they will generally not go bad for a week.

Bottle Method

Can you think of how to preserve it using bottles? It's very simple, it's the same way we usually arrange flowers. Slightly trim the lower stems of the perilla leaves and insert them directly into the water bottle. Do not expose the upper part to the air. Take out a plastic bag and cover the head of the perilla and gently put it on. This method is exactly the same as putting it in the refrigerator for almost a week.

Drying method

First, wash the perilla leaves and keep only the leaves. The rest of the stems and branches are discarded and can be cut off completely. Then place it in a ventilated and cool place to dry, and finally put it in a sealable fresh-keeping bag, which will allow it to be stored longer.

Box method

Just use a foam box, just like storing seafood, seal it up to isolate oxygen, and the perilla can be kept fresh for longer.

There are many ways to preserve perilla in daily life, which are all summaries of the working people's own experience. This is just a simple summary to bring some convenience to everyone's life.
