R5 · Basil does not belong in the fridge

Save this before you put the shopping away. Basil is a warm-weather plant and it never stopped being one. Below about 50 degrees it takes cold damage, which is why the leaves go black and limp within a day or two of going in the fridge. You did not buy a bad bunch. You chilled a tropical herb. What to do instead: trim the stems, stand it in a glass with an inch of water, and leave it on the counter out of direct sun. Change the water daily. The confusing part is that this is nearly unique to basil. Parsley, cilantro, mint, dill and the rest are perfectly happy cold, and the same glass-of-water trick works for them in the fridge with a loose bag over the top. Roughly a week, give or take. If a bunch is on its way out, blend it with oil and freeze it in a tray. Four to six months, and you will be glad of it in February.
