Thanks so much for the video on freezing greens today at the farmers market I bought ten bunches of kale and I got ten five cup containers, while watching Your video I saw the extra pot liquor go down the drain it sent a chill down my spine, I know I'm different than most in a lot of ways but to me pot liquor is the gold standard of hot drinks. today I cut the stems up and cooked them in a separate pot don't know how it will turn out if not eatable it will be drinkable. Again Thanks!
Awhile back I picked up two food dehydrators $2.00 ea at a yard sale figured maybe one would work it did I've been drying apples , tomatoes and a few herbs that's about it anyone else out there drying?

I have quite a bit of parsley and carrot top greens that I will dry.
Because I do not have a dehydrator, I'll do it the old-fashioned way of hanging the leaves in a dark, dry and cool spot.

That liquid is called vegetable stock - something that I do not let go down the drain either!
Temperatures are below freezing now at night. I have covered my garden plants but will have to harvest the remaining abundance.
I have quite a bit of parsley and some cilantro that needs to be harvested. I will try freezing the individual stemmed leaves on a baking sheet in the freezer and then transfer to freezing bags. It won't be the same as the fresh herb but will be a welcomed addition to dishes during the winter.
Those of you who can tomatoes. Do you guys use the wide mouth jars?
I bought 24 Jars for $25.00US. 32oz Jars. Then I realized they aren't wide mouth.
So maybe the wide mouth is easier to stuff in the tomatoes in?
What are the positives and negatives of each?
