·* Don't cook parsley, because heat destroys its valuable

vitamins and minerals. To retain parsley's flavor, chop

the herb just before using and add it to hot foods at the

last minute.

·* Avoid dried parsley, it is far less tasty and healthful

than the fresh herb.

·* Try the flat leaf variety, also called Italian parsley, It has

more nutrients and a better flavor than curly parsley.

·* Add parsley to compliment a dish, such as potatoes,

smoked salmon, trout, poultry, pasta and vegetables.

·* Freeze fresh parsley to save preparation time in the

kitchen. Wash, zip seal plastic bag. You can then remove

the amount you need with each recipe.

·* To keep parsley fresh, sprinkle it with water, wrapping

it in paper towels and refrigerating it in a plastic bag.

Or place parsley stems in a glass of water, like a bunch

or flowers, and refrigerate.
