How do you identify the type of parsley plant in your garden?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The types of parsley I'm familiar with are the Italian or French parsley with its flat leaves that look a bit like celery leaves, and the 'normal' curled parsley with its dense finely cut and curled leaves. The Italian parsley is more strongly flavored than the curled, and grows taller when mature.
Take a look at the Related Link under the blue box at the left for a photo of the two main types.

How do you chop parsley?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Depends, my mother usually gets dried parsley for food and just chops it up, im not sure if dried parsley and normal parsley is the same

Use a sharp kitchen knife and start cutting. If you want it as garnish, do not make the pieces too fine. If it is for a soup, salad, etc, chop it up finely. Make sure you move your hand with the knife to make sure your hand stays out of the way of the knife.

How much is 1 cup of fresh parsley compared to dried parsley?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I use nearly the same ratio to substitute for most herbs. 3 to 1. You want one third the amount of dried as the amount of fresh that is called for. That would be approximately 1 teaspoon of dried to one tablespoon of fresh, or 1/3 cup of dried for your 1 cup of fresh. However, it also depends on how fresh your dried herbs are. Fresher dried herbs will have a stronger flavor and you may be able to use less. Older dried herbs will have a weaker flavor and may require more.

If the parsley is to be used as a garnish, I wouldn't substitute dried.

How do you dry fresh parsley?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

1) Hang them up, or spread them out on a screen/net. 2) Maintain a humidity of 50% or less, by venting or using a dehumidifier (see alternate method below). 3) Limit light/sun exposure. 4) promote some air circulation (doesn't have to be much). 5) they are dry when the stem snap. 6) For best quality, store dry herbs as whole as possible and crush just before using. 7) Store herbs in lidded glass jars, in a cool, dark location. Use for food or medicinal purposes within one year. Use the following method for decorative herbs only, not for food or medicinal purposes. Alternate method (relates to step 2): Get some "Flower Drying Crystals" or "Silica Gel Desiccant." Place the desiccant and the herbs together in a sealed (or semi-sealed) container (could be a tupperware tub, a 55 gal poly drum with gasket lid, a trash bag tied with a zip tie). Do this in such a way that the herbs and the desiccant do not make direct contact (especially if the desiccant is a fine powder). Proceed directly to step 5. A tip: herbs are "designed" to hold water in the stem, even when the leaf/flower tissue is dry (this is a drought-survival attribute). That being said, a good method is to go through steps 1 through 4. When the leaf/flower feels dry or crispy to the touch, seal the herb up in an airtight container (again, a plastic bag/container etc). When it is sealed, the stem will release it's fluid into the leaf/flower. After 24 hours, the herb will feel wet to the touch, again. Now, go back to step 1. Repeat until the herb is dry to the touch whether it's hanging up or sealed. There are also some solar-drying methods, but I personally don't think they are good (do to UV damage).
