How to store fresh basil for longer: 3 easy and no waste hacks

Tired of wasting your basil after a few days? Don't worry, we have 3 perfect hacks for you!

 

1. In a jar
Remove it from the plastic packaging and place it in a jar full of water. Store it in a cool and dry place and remember to change water every 3 days to make it last longer.

2. In the fridge
Wash and dry basil leaves. Place them on a paper towel and roll them up! Store them in a food bag in the fridge up to 10 days.

3. Olive oil cubes
If you want to have fresh basil throughout the year, you can make oil cubes! Put some basil leaves into an ice tray, fill them with olive oil and freeze. Here are your oil cubes, ready to melt in a pan or to season your bread.
