Preserving herbs can be a bit tricky, and one of the methods I love is to preserve the leafy greens like basil, in salt. These herbs can be short-lived, so by adding them to salt as a preservative you have a delicious cooking or finishing salt and hold the flavor of the herb. Delicious! #herbalist #preserving #heidivillegas #homesteading #healingharvesthomestead
