Want to get extra fancy? Chop your chives, stuff them into an ice cube tray, and cover them with melted butter. Yes, butter. Freeze that combo.
How To Freeze Chives (2 Easy Methods) - Get Busy Gardening
Now you have chive-butter cubes. Pop one into a pan when you’re cooking steak. Or drop it into boiling pasta. It’s like finding a twenty-dollar bill in your winter coat.
Just don’t forget to tell your family. Otherwise, they’ll think you’re making weird green popsicles. And they might judge you.
A word on storage gear
Use freezer bags, not regular bags. Regular bags let in freezer stink. You don’t want your chives tasting like frozen pizza and ice cream swirl. Trust me on this one.
Also, don’t cram the bag full. Leave some room. Chives aren’t claustrophobic, but they breathe better with space. Plus, a flat bag stacks neatly. Your freezer will look like an organized library of deliciousness.
Write “CHIVES” in big letters. Because six months from now, you will open the freezer and think, “Is this grass? Did I freeze lawn clippings?” Don’t risk it.
