Join cookbook author Bri Beaudoin to learn creative ways to cook with fresh herbs, tips for making herbs last longer at home, and easy methods for preserving herbs using your freezer and pantry.
Fresh herbs are a delicious, healthy, and budget-friendly way to elevate your cooking. In the summer, herbs like basil, thyme, parsley, rosemary, mint, and lavender grow abundantly. Whether you’re a gardener whose herbs are growing like weeds or someone who buys them from the market, learn how to make the most of them and reduce waste.
