Ok I have seeds all over the garden. Well you know what I mean ::). I have a few seed heads and I want to save the seeds to use in cooking. Anyone have any practical experience of this and can tell me "best practice" ;)
We are not talking tons here (or even LBs)
thanks in advance

Paper bag until they dry, then transfer some to an airtight container. I say some, because if you put them in an airtight container straight away and they are not dry enough they go mouldy. Or I suppose you can freeze them if its for cooking, I freeze green herbs in individual ice cube trays, then transfer to a plastic bag, so you get little portions.
Apparently, according to Worral Thompson I think, the bulb fennel seeds are not very good in cooking so use the herb fennel for seeds for cooking :)
Ok thanks both. Seems like I have the "wrong" seeds :'( but will try the paper bag anyway ;) and see what we get when we cook em 8)

Nothing ventured, nothing gained eh. I always try things. Even if it don't work at least you've tried :)
