What is the best way to preserve mint?
Begin by running a sheet of paper towel under cool water and thoroughly wringing out any excess moisture.
Once done, you can wrap your bunch of mint in the damp paper towel and then place it inside an appropriately sized zip-top plastic bag.
This will ensure your fresh mint stays as good as new for longer!
Can you freeze fresh mint?
Simply chop the leaves from the stems and place 1-2 teaspoons of chopped mint into each compartment of an ice cube tray.
Top off with water and freeze until solid.
Then, store your frozen mint cubes in an airtight freezer bag or container, labeled and dated for up to 3 months.
Can I keep mint inside for the winter?
During the colder months of the year, be sure to reduce your watering frequency slightly while maintaining moist soil.
For maximum growth and harvest, consider using an LED grow lamp to supplement lighting.
