Use

Use only fresh and really green parsley.
Pick off the best of the leaves, the tender parts.
Then chopp leaves with scissors or a sharp knife before adding to your recipe.
Note: Don't leave chopped parsley lying around for too long, otherwise it will lose is flavour.

Keeping

Parsley can be frozen.

Remarks

If you use parsley in a recipe where it's going to be cooked, don't forget to add the stalks too, because even on their own they will give a much fuller parsley flavour.
