If you are afraid (with good reason) to use store-bought herbs--grow your own either in small pots on your window sill or in your garden. cut them, spread on paper towels and let dry. Put in glass jar and you will have "safe" flavorings all year long and about 3 years fresher than what you buy dried in a store. Ann
