Dill
To store dill:
For short-term storage, stand upright in a container with an inch of water. Then cover loosely with a plastic bag and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
To prep dill:
Chop the leaves and stem before cooking.
To cook dill:
Dill is a standard ingredient in pickling. It also combines well with green beans, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, tomatoes, parsnips, potatoes, spinach, cucumber, squash, eggplant, and eggs.
To freeze dill:
Trim off the long stem ends leaving only an inch attached to the feathery foliage. Place a couple of sprigs together inside a resealable plastic freezer bag; press out all of the air and seal. When you need fresh dill for a recipe, remove the frozen sprig and snip off what you need while still frozen. Do not let it thaw.
