1. Do you want your parsley to stay fresh in your jar of water? All you need to do is cut the bottom of the stems 12mm to allow them to absorb more water and then remove the golden leaves.
2. Make sure the leaves are dry. To avoid wetting the leaves, rinse your herbs only when they are ready to use them;
3. Place the parsley sprigs in a glass jar or container ¾ full of water;
4. Store aromatic herbs in the refrigerator. To do this, wrap a plastic bag around the jar, loosely. Secure it with an elastic. The bag will allow the leaves to retain their moisture and will prevent them from browning.
5. Change the water in the jar every other day to keep the herbs fresh;
6. Before using the parsley, rinse it under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel or salad spinner.

This trick can keep your weed fresh for up to two weeks. Note that this same method can be used to preserve basil. But instead of refrigerating the latter, it is recommended to keep it at room temperature… You just have to enjoy the freshness of your favorite herbs!
Store the parsley in a paper towel

We have a smart idea for you to maintain your aromatic plant in a different way! Use a moistened paper towel (a paper towel, preferably unprinted) and wrap it around the parsley. Place everything in an airtight bag that goes in the fridge, to keep the leaves intact and prevent them from wilting. Remember to re-moisten the paper towels once they have dried.
