OH WOW I just found you on here. I want to try all of this. I always have an over abundance of herbs this time of year. Thanks for sharing.

You're welcome! Thank you so much for watching!

I'm going to try some of the layered basil in the salt. Great idea!

I enjoyed this as I have a lot of herbs right now. I'll try the herbed Salt. I'm told you can also freeze basil leaves if they are coated in olive oil. We'll see!

[@bigbarnlittlehouse7013]

We LOVE the herbed salt!

Can I waterbath the herb syrup and preserve it

[@bigbarnlittlehouse7013]

Good question! I don't know!

Greetings, Ratio of salt to herbs dried and layered? What size is your Ball jar? Cheers, Upstate NY

[@bigbarnlittlehouse7013]

I don't think there is an exact ration but as long as there is a good layer of salt in between the herbs, that's probably enough. The ball jar is a 24 oz, tall jar. I actually think it would do better in a larger, wider jar. It would have given me more room to spread the basil out.

@bigbarnlittlehouse7013 Gm☕️ 24 oz. wide mouth, and you get them recently? What about the amount of salt you used in the food processor? Ty...have a pleasant day. Cheers, Upstate NY

[@bigbarnlittlehouse7013]

@@rachelstark2391 No real measurement but probably 1:1 ratio of salt to fresh herbs. Adjust to your taste. Jars are on Amazon!
