I did this, and it turned out well. I let mine drain on paper towels for a long time (2 days). It only took 15 min. in the oven to get dry enough to crumble and store.
I live in a place where it is humid. I have tried that before with other herbs, and it didn't go well. This *ensures* that it is very dry and so it will keep in storage for some time.
I've never used a silicone or grilling mat, so can't comment. The purpose of the parchment paper is to keep them from burning. I would think a silicone mat would work, but keep a close on it the first time you try it.
We used this recipe to dry our lemon balm, it worked out great!
very good seen and talking.
Thanks for the great how to! I planted parsley from seeds and it did excellent this year. Now to start drying!
You're very welcome :) That's awesome! I've never tried growing parsley from seed before. Is it hard to do?
@@thepanickedfoodie4198 We live in Illinois so we start the seeds inside around the 1st of May. Super easy.
Excellent instructive video - exactly the information I was looking for.
Glad it was helpful!

That's great! Enjoy your dried parsley :)
Great video! I just tried it out and it worked very nicely, thank you!
Thank you! I'm glad it worked out, and I hope you enjoy your parsley!
congratulations!
good job!
great video. Why not dry leaves and stalk?

Nice video will try it out! We have an excess of parsley growing! Thanks.
You're very welcome! Let me know how it turns out. (sorry I am just seeing your comment now.)
Thank you!
I make little bundle and let them hang till dry, I use all of it.
Fritz... Me too, but after I put them in the mason jar they started to turn brown. Is that natural or have I done something wrong? Thanks
A very useful video, Thanks! Also, an amazingly clean oven 😀
Oh gosh, I did not even think of that lol. Good thing it wasn't dirty haha
Gotta get that sweet sweet apigenin
Nice☺️
Dried parsley 🌿 is a rich source of apigenin, and I would like to know your opinion on whether heat can destroy or damage the apigenin.
No idea. I'm sure Google has a lot to say on it though!
Instead of parchment paper any reason one can't use a silicone mat or grilling mats?

I still had 8 minutes left on the timer and mine were burnt.
I would double check your oven temperature, make sure your oven rack isnt next to the heating elements.
Sun is cheaper
It is! Definitely something you can do if you have the outdoor space for it.
