CQ,
ReplyDeleteHow do you harvest your spearmint? Do you end up dehydrating it, or freezing it?
I cut mine and simply dry it either in the dehydrator or hang it upside down on the porch!
DeleteThanks CQ
Deletelooks like a lot of apple pies, jelly and applesauce are in your future. I've been thinking about replacing a side fence in our yard with grape vines. What variety is that, and how old is the vine.

ReplyDeleteI also wondered about your spearmint... how do you preserve it and what do you use for? I bought a small spearmint plant this year and only use a few leaves to put in my sweet tea. I would love to know other uses for it, please.
ReplyDeleteSpearmint dried makes a great winter tea with honey. Just substitute spearmint for mint in your favorite mint jelly recipe. I also add it to vodka and make a spearmint extract for baking. Try lemon poppy seed muffins with a drop or two of spearmint extract!
Deletemmm I want some-please lol
ReplyDeletep.s. Love the new header pic of blackberries!
