I grow parsley, basil, oregano, chives,mint...tried rosemary, cilantro, thyme...no luck! Anyway, I de-stem when fresh cut, dry on parchment papered cookie sheets, then store in canisters for winter......with chives, I cut into little chunks with kitchen scissors when fresh cut, then dry......

I use a dehydrator to dry curly parsley, basil, and mint. Just wash in a sink of cold water and drain. Pick leaves off the stems , lay on the trays , and dry overnight till brittle. Empty all trays into a large bowl. Using your hands, crumble dried leaves as small as you want. I sift through a colander to get the size I want and any stem pieces out. Store in a glass jar.
