How to Make Dried Cilantro at Home (怎样做干香菜)
怎样做干香菜 (Zěn Yàng Zuò Gàn Xiāng Cài)
I love fresh cilantro, but most of the times I only use small portion as garnish for some of my dishes. I came up with this simple method to dehydrate the unused cilantro.
For more fun cooking ideas, see Recipes by Category.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch of fresh cilantro
Drying Time: 1 week or so
Cooking Steps
1. Clean one bunch of fresh cilantro, drain, cut into small bits, spread on a large alum sheet.
2. Let it dry in room temperature naturally if the room humidity is low. Flip occasionally to let all sides of the leaves dry.
3. This process could take a few days or a week.
4. If you use small tabletop oven to toast or bake other food, just place the alum sheet with the cilantro on top of the oven, the heat will speed up the dehydration process. You are essentially utilizing a free heat!
5. Place the dried cilantro inside a bottle.
