Cooking method

  • Naturally dried mintNot too old mint shoots are good for drying.
    Naturally dried mintChoose the most beautiful and good mint bush and transfer it to a flowerpot for subsequent wintering in an apartment. The remaining greens - for cutting, in the amount that you need.
    Naturally dried mintPour cold water into a large bowl or saucepan and immerse the mint in it, leave for a few minutes. Gently sort through the mint sprigs, separating the spoiled leaves and rinsing them from sand and dust. Drain and fill up with fresh water. Submerge the mint in water and rinse thoroughly, gently inverting the branches. Repeat a few more times if necessary.
    Naturally dried mintPlace the mint on a linen towel.
    Naturally dried mintLoosely wrap a towel to dry any remaining water droplets off the mint, or use a carousel (dryer) for herbs and vegetables.
    Naturally dried mintTake another linen towel (dry) and lay out the rimmed tray or any other suitable shape.
    Naturally dried mintSpread the mint in a single layer on a tray with a towel and leave to dry in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight. Periodically, the mint should be stirred up, gently taking it by the base of the branch. If necessary, change the towel to a dry one if it remains damp under the mint branches.
    Naturally dried mintAfter the mint is dry, separate the leaves from the stems, the stems are no longer needed.
    Naturally dried mintFold the towel in half and pour the mint leaves into a sieve, if the mint has large leaves, then it makes sense to first grind the leaves in your palms, while pouring the residual litter from your palms away from the bulk of the mint. Work in a well-ventilated area, or better still outdoors, or process mint in small batches to avoid exposure to a strong enough mint scent that can cause irritation or headaches.
    Naturally dried mintPour the finished chopped mint into a jar with a lid and store it in a closet, away from sunlight.
