I'm no expert, but I think making sure the leaves are completely dried out before you jar them will be the best thing. They will keep and not get moldy. |

Yes, that's the ticket! Be sure they are totally dry, and then you won't have to worry about mold! Katz |

I've done this, and it works out just fine. I've never had a problem with mold. |

I just leave the lid off the jar. I do this with Rosemary and Bay. My spice rack has enough overhang so they don't get dusty. With mint I put it in the freezer. Works great in a tea stainer. (Mint has more moisture. And freezing breaks the cell structure, making it quicker to steep.) |
