I did a good harvest of the Berry Bed yesterday....
here's a bunch of chives. I snipped them and set them on cookie sheets to dry.
Over here, you can see another way I use to dry our herbs....
We will be moving the rhubarb plants into their new beds this year, so I pulled most of the rhubarb of the one plant.
It's important to remember, if you want rhubarb to continuing growing, do NOT pull all the stalks. Leave some!
A basket full of lovage! Lovage has a celery like taste, it is really good!
I snipped the leaves and now they are also drying on cookie sheets.
I used the food processor on the rhubarb, measured 4 cups into each Ziplock...
now they are in the deep freeze, to be dealt with later!

Yummy rhubarb!
I have also frozen a ton of rhubarb but didn't think to put it through the food processor - it would take up so much less room! What a good idea!
Do you find that freezing chives is better or drying them, in terms of flavour?
Umbrellalady, freezing the chives would be better, they would have more flavour.
