Question about saving fresh spices
My Aunt recently told me she freezes her fresh spices so they don't go bad (like oregano, basil, etc). Has anyone ever heard of that?

Yes. I've done this before too with rosemary and some other spices.

I have done it, yesterday I grated a whole bunch of ginger and froze it in ice cube trays.
A really good idea is to make some herb butters and freeze them, they help the herbs to keep their fresh flavor and taste good on lots of stuff.

I do this all the time. If i buy basil, parsley oregano etc. I clean it , let it dry on the towle & then i put them in zip locks in the freezer. Thats the only way i know how

my grandmother always froze basil- she would grow it fresh during the summer and they put it in ziplocks for the winter months & freeze it
