Look For
Fresh-looking sorrel with good colour and a clean, fresh scent. Avoid any brown spots or wilted stalks or leaves.
To Store
Sorrel is best used soon after purchase. If stored, store in a plastic bag, unwashed in the crisper section of the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To Prepare
Discard the stems and wash the leaves well. Use young leaves raw to add kick to a green salad, or combine with low-fat margarine as an accompaniment for fish.
