Step 1
Wash basil. It does help to allow to air dry a bit.
Step 2
Place on dehydrator trays. While it does shrink, I prefer to leave the leaves separated instead of mounding as they take so much longer to dry than greens.
Step 3
Dry at 95F/35C for up to 48 hours. Yours may dry faster, but be prepared for them to take longer because of the broad leaves and naturally occurring oils that make it so fragrant!
Step 4
Allow samples to cool before testing - basil is done when it crumbles completely in your hand
Step 5
Condition
Step 6
Store in an airtight container
