This method works wonderfully and is my most favorite. Tried it (among various other methods that I came across when googled). Thanks Ms Rinku. The pros: The leaves in the freezer continue to be green, tender & fragrant even after 2 months. Cons: The drying time in the process can be a little more efficient. The changes I made: I cut the small branches, washed, dried them by hanging them upside down in the mild sun or shade even, for 15 to 20 minutes. Once the branches were dry, then I separated all the leaves, oiled & put them in the freezer. This method saved me a LOT of time & energy.
Similarly, for cilantro, I store them in glass tumblers with water( like cut flowers in a vase) in the fridge(not freezer) and it stays perfect for a month at least. Just keep adding/changing fresh water to the glass whenever the level goes down.

Thank you, Light-hearted

[@dr.h.poornimamohan1439]

I would be afraid of toppling the glass when taking out something else in a hurry... open glass of water inside the frige will definitely not work for me 😓

[@Mita_2023]

This is a new process I learned today for storing curry leaves. I have so much trouble with their shelf life and I cannot find them all round the year either. Thank you so much for the information.

[@ptcharlee]

Thank you soooo so very much, I was always buying fresh, use a little amount and the rest would go bad, now I can freeze them

[@namratak9232]

Thanks you so much! This is very useful 🙏

[@jenniferdcunha3070]

Hi Rinku I wash the leaves and strip them off the stalks. then I air them on paper towels to dry off water. I toss them in a spoon full of oil and bake it in a moderate oven till they are just crisping up. I remove, cool and store in airtight packs on kitchen shelf. stays aromatic for months together. Use as required. Please try and let me know.

[@Rinkusrasoi]

Thanks for useful tips

[@dr.h.poornimamohan1439]

I normally roast the leaves in a pan over low fire, powder them and store in airtight container in the frige...use a spoonful or two of this powder whenever leaves are needed. Though the final product does not have the aesthetic effect of leaves, the flavor is as good as fresh leaves with added nutritional values since we tend to remove the leaves while eating, but not so with powder

[@majestic6303]

What powder are you talking about?

Thanks for the tip. I'll try it.
It is usually sold in a bunch, and I always have more curry leaves than I need, and the remainder loses its fragrance by the next time I need it.

[@erikablack6761]

Thank you for the informative video!!! One question: What oil are you using??

[@Rinkusrasoi]

i used vegetable oil..you can use any oil or ghee ..purpose of oil is to coat the leaves to trap the moisture inside..

Hi there . Pl tell me how to freeze GREEN CHILLIES n DHANIYA. Thanks

[@asishraz6173]

I don't have freeze, then how I can store. I really want to know

[@dunberberberlee]

does the oil make it easy to break off the required leaves easily, or do you need to thaw the whole bag?

[@bocaraton11]

no you dont need to thaw the whole bag ..you can take out as required. .oil will keep it soft ..

[@moahmd6586]

What is the kind of oil?

[@tazdu]

Thank you for this information! I had tried freezing them before but they would turn black and sometimes were OK but oftentimes, not OK.
What is the best kind of oil to use???

[@pragawa]

Same here, tazdu! I'll try this next time.

[@ShiraliPatelSmallIdea]

Olive oil

[@gateway1022]

Hello is this leave call neem leave also are they the same leaves

[@Rinkusrasoi]

yes these are sweet need leaves ...there are two types bitter and sweet .. these are sweet need leaves

[@sheeba9394]

Hi.. Drying it for one hour.. Still there'll be bit moisture in the leaves na.. Is that OK??

[@Rinkusrasoi]

yes for freezing little moisture is ok but it will prevent the oil to stick onto it so i would suggest take a dry cloth napkin and just rub leaves on napkin which will absorb extra moisture..

[@sangeetharajan9820]

Hi. Just a question. Can I store it without rubbing it with oil. What is the purpose of doing it?

[@Rinkusrasoi]

by rubbing the oil the moisture will lock inside and that will prevent the smell and fragrance

[@shaheenpawane2274]

Please show how to store mint leaves

[@anoshakbustani66]

Hi Rinku.....do i have to remove leaves from the stem, can i not rub oil with stem on?

[@Rinkusrasoi]

you can leave the stem on there is not issue with that

[@anoshakbustani66]

Thank you for quick response.

[@pritambhanushali8471]

With out oil zip lock bag mai direct store nhi kar sakte kya?

[@Rinkusrasoi]

oil se ek coating ban jayega usase woh lambe samay tak achha rahega

[@charitha721]

hi "Rinkusrasoi" where i live its very hard to find pandan leaves..
can i follow same methord on Pndan leaves also..
please advice..
thank you.

[@Rinkusrasoi]

Hi +Charitha Samarasinghe , I personally never tried it but you can give it a try. Pandan leaves also little bit crispy ( with moisture in it) so you can try with applying oil or ghee on the top and then store in a ziploack bag. Basically oil/ghree will make a coating on top of leaf which locks the moisture inside and when you store it will stay fresh. so try with pandan leaves and if you do please share your experience with us. So it will be beneficial for others too :)

[@charitha721]

Hi +Rinkusrasoi thank you very much:)
Yes absolutely I will update..

[@chetannandu4279]

rink rasol

[@neha4294]

[@Rinkusrasoi]

[@pratibhaparkar]

[@salimsayyed3045]

Sayyed subhanallah

[@mzzwidadgariba594]

Where will I get the curry leaf please

[@abhib1186]

Mzzwidad Gariba not sure where you live, if in the US please search for Indian stores near you in yelp and call them and ask if they have them

[@rpatel7941]

Your final shot should have been ones you had stored in the freezer to show us...missed opportunity

[@upmadhingra7194]

Thank u!! But the leaves froze n the flavor just isn't there..

[@Rinkusrasoi]

if you properly coat it with oil or ghree then you will get same flavor even after leaves are frozen

[@hasnahyunus7236]

Ooo... bowl I thought ball

[@subasinicole6067]

what kind of oil did you use? thanks

[@Rinkusrasoi]

+Subasini Cole you can use any cooking oil..the purpose of the oil is to create a coating on the leaves. You can also use ghee if you want.

[@dietpiediaries6287]

Can curry leaves be eaten when stir fried or soup, or does it have tone removed ? Thanks

[@dietpiediaries6287]
