    Look, all I’m saying is that sometimes I just want to buy a little bit of parsley or cilantro for a dish, but can’t. I gotta buy the entire bundle and waste most of it. And that’s just one such example I can think of on top of my head.

      Then you chop it all off and freeze it, put it in a ice cream box or something and then use it for stews or soups where it’s not so important to use fresh

        Been there, done that. Produce doesn’t freeze well at all. It just turns soggy and mushy. It’s a non-option but thanks for trying.

          I use parsley and cilantro like that, but only in stews, soups and stocks, it does get a bit soggy and frostburned tho.
