Preparation
Step 1
Wash all of your fresh herbs and pat them dry with a towel.
Step 2
Chop your herbs to the size that you’d like to use when you’re cooking them later.
Step 3
Add your chopped herbs to individual sections of a silicone ice cube tray about ⅔ of the way full.
Step 4
Pour olive or avocado oil into each section of the ice cube tray. Be careful not to overfill. Carefully press the herbs down so that the oil covers them completely.
Step 5
Freeze the entire ice cube tray for at least 3 hours until ice cubes form. Then, transfer herb ice cubes to a reusable, freezer-friendly bag.
Step 6
When ready to use, place one of the herb ice cubes in a heated pan and make your recipe as you normally would after adding oil and fresh herbs.
