I LOVE basil. But, I do not use it enough to not waste some of it. I knew there had to be a better way to preserve it. I turned to my friend, Google to find a solution. I found a suggestion from Rachael Ray and decided I would try it. She made it sound so simple; I was in shock. All you do is treat basil like you would flowers. When you bring it home, cut the end and place in a small amount of water (I just used a glass that I had). Then place a plastic storage bag over the top to make a greenhouse type effect. It has been almost a week and my basil is still fresh! Definitely will be doing this from now on :)
