Drying Zataar Herb

Here’s another “figure it out as I go along” method of greenhouse solutions.

How does one dry an herb that tends to disconnect from the stem while drying?

How lovely the Zataar herb bunches, tied with twine on the cedar table.

The twine is suspended from a ceiling hook.

Zataar bunch is hung from the twine. If it slips, the double knots in the twine should hold it up.

Hanging one below the other the zataar becomes a garland.
Below you see a basket lined with linens, to catch the falling dried leaves.

Dried or fresh zataar on goat cheese. Very delicious.
