Oregano Harvest

The oregano has been slowly overtaking my garden, so I hacked it today then dried it. First, I washed it with that produce spray stuff, then I submerged it in a large bowl like you would spinach. Once it was very clean, I it among two baking trays, and put it into the oven. I let the oven heat up to 150, then turned it off and let it sit in there for a good 4 hours. The oven door was open.

  1. I just saw you are starting a diet. Good luck! :)

    I've hesitated to do a long term drying like that, particularly for tomatoes. Is it worth it?

  2. Misti--Thanks for the well wishes re the diet! I actually started another blog that will make public in a few weeks. I guess the "About Me" for both blogs has to be the same...isn't that odd? Anyway, definitely try the tomatoes in the dryer. I know people who put them on pizza as a topiing after dipping them into oil or water for a few seconds. yummy.
