Rehydrating dried herbs is not as hard as it may seem. The main thing to remember is that because the herbs have been dried, the moisture that has been removed from them and must be put back. Even though dehydrated herbs have been dried, they have not lost their flavor. With the rehydration process -- usually in conjunction with the recipe -- the herbs retain their natural flavor.
Things You'll Need
Bowl
Immerse the dried herbs in a small bowl of water with enough water to cover the herbs completely.
Cover the container tightly.
Allow the herbs to stand in the water for 10 minutes to become fully rehydrated. Strain the excess water from the herbs.
Tips & Warnings
Keep the water you hydrated the herbs in to use in the dish.
You can also rehydrate herbs in lukewarm wine for an hour, if that suits your recipe better.
