  • Drying herbs in the subtropics can be difficult with the extreme humidity most of the year unless you want to use the oven to slowly dry them. I find that using the air fryer to dry the herbs is the quickest and most simple way to preserve herbs throughout summer when there is an abundance in the garden. I like to start drying them at 100 degrees Celsius and adjust according to the herb you're drying. The more moisture, the higher the temperature I like to set the air fryers. Just make sure to weight the herbs down with something that is heat proof or else they'll fly around and potentially burn.
    Let me know if you try this method if you're got an air fryer and anything else you like to dry!

    I take the rack out and put the leaves on the bottom and place the rack over the top of the leaves to hold them down. Works great

    That's 212° Fahrenheit which is way too high of heat for herbs to keep any of their nutrients or medicinal properties. If you don't care about that and just want the herbs for their flavor, cool, but I just thought some might want to know this info.

    Young Lady, "THANK YOU"! I have searched everywhere to find out how to dry herbs. And came accross your web page and my search has ended. I am 64 years old and in my "GREAT" wisdom I decided to "POT" some herbs. I chose taragon, basil, sage, parsley, oregano, thyme, cilantro, chives, and last but not least, rosemary. Never the less I found out that I had an inate talent on "FARMING"! ALL IN MY APARTMENT! I have been almost evicted by my plants. And now I find I have enough herbs to supply McCormik for the next 3 years! LOL Just kidding, but Ya I have A LOT! You have pointed me in the right direction and I thank you for that! I happen to have a good dehydrator and I look forward to trying. All I ask is either with you or your family of subscibers, knowing the herbs that I have listed, time frame for each on drying as well as tips. I have been unable to get a difinative answer to that question. Keep this in mind Folks, this is my first time doing this I don't want to screw up. LOL TIA to all, and Nature Patch thanks for your channel.

    I can't wait to experiment with my air fryer and see how my herbs go! I usually air dry them, but it takes forever as I'm in Brissie area and the humidity has been crazy with all the rain this year!
