HOW TO STORE DILL WEED
Keep dried dill weed in an airtight jar similar to all herbs and spices away from heat and moisture. We recommend a spice cabinet that is away from the sink, stove and not facing direct sunlight. When properly stored, dried dill weed will generally stay at best quality for 3 years but we recommend to always check the best use date.
