Wow! I will definitely try this! I thought your first image was a picture of seaweed. I thought, maybe when a storm blows in, a consolation would be there is some edible seaweed with it.
I dry herbs more than any other way of preserving them. I put some in vinegar, too, like elephant garlic flowers. I put some herbs in honey, and some in gin, lol, to make flavored cocktails. I put some in a jar with sugar or salt, to flavor them. I have so many things in jars, sometimes it looks like a mad scientist laboratory, lol.
And I do bring some plants indoors, like mint. It doesn't take much to keep mint going for a couple months. But I never thought of frying them in oil. Thank you!
These fried leaves will really look amazing on a plated dish like the one of SIC!!! I am just wondering about some wild leaves, that you usually make us discover, fried like this...must be amazing!
Thanks for sharing you lovely techniques in preserving herbs! In fact I would love to discover that mad scientist lab btw!
