Q: Some herbs are easier to dry than others owing to their stronger leaves and oils. However, almost all herbs can be dried in one or another. Trial and experiment is the best way to find out which herbs dry best for you, with the expectation that some herbs will shrivel up and look like a brown mess when dried, while others will retain color and texture well. Strong leaved herbs tend to be the easiest herbs to dry. These include bay leaves, rosemary, thyme and sage. A dried bay or rosemary leaf will usually retain its color and shape without any difficulty. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/7\/72\/Dry-Herbs-Step-1Bullet1.jpg\/v4-459px-Dry-Herbs-Step-1Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/7\/72\/Dry-Herbs-Step-1Bullet1.jpg\/aid2862681-v4-728px-Dry-Herbs-Step-1Bullet1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":306,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"485","licensing":"<div class="mw-parser-output"><p>License: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/">Creative Commons<\/a><br>

<\/p><\/div>"} Tender broad leaved varieties can be a bit trickier, as they are easily affected by moisture and can quickly turn moldy if not dried properly. The types of herbs in question include basil, parsley, mint, tarragon, cilantro and lemon balm. These need to be dried quickly to prevent molding. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/5\/52\/Dry-Herbs-Step-1Bullet2.jpg\/v4-459px-Dry-Herbs-Step-1Bullet2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/5\/52\/Dry-Herbs-Step-1Bullet2.jpg\/aid2862681-v4-728px-Dry-Herbs-Step-1Bullet2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":306,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"485","licensing":"<div class="mw-parser-output"><p>License: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/">Creative Commons<\/a><br>

<\/p><\/div>"} There will be plenty of buds to signify that flowering is about to occur. As for the time of day, generally it is best to harvest herbs after the dew has evaporated but before the sun has had a chance to evaporate the volatile oils in the herbs. This is usually early morning, give or take a bit for the specifics of your location. Although generalist advice is to harvest herbs before the flowers open, it pays to experiment. Sometimes it's better to harvest after. It all depends on which form will allow the herbs to hold their shape and flavor best. And if you actually want flowers, then it makes sense to wait until the herb flowers first. The herbs will preserve best if they're dealt with immediately; allowing them to wilt or sit around and gather moisture or dust will spoil their flavor, color and appearance. Some herbs may need rinsing first, and a pick over to remove debris such as dried grass or weeds. Herbs can be gently rinsed under cool water, and given a minimal shake to remove excess moisture. Discard leaves with blemishes, bruising or imperfections. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/b\/b7\/Dry-Herbs-Step-4Bullet1.jpg\/v4-459px-Dry-Herbs-Step-4Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/b\/b7\/Dry-Herbs-Step-4Bullet1.jpg\/aid2862681-v4-728px-Dry-Herbs-Step-4Bullet1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":306,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"485","licensing":"<div class="mw-parser-output"><p>License: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/">Creative Commons<\/a><br>

A: Choose herbs for drying. Harvest herbs for drying just before their flowers open. Prepare for drying as soon as you've harvested the herbs. Clean the herbs if needed.

Q: Place your jewelry in a clean mason jar or another suitable container. Cover it with white vinegar, so that it is completely immersed. You can let it sit for two or three hours, depending on how much tarnish you need to remove. Then, rinse and dry the jewelry. If the piece is only moderately dirty, it should be pretty clean after fifteen minutes.
A: Immerse your jewelry in white vinegar.

Q: To try to get the foreign object dislodged, you need to push your fist and hand into your diaphragm or stomach area. Use a quick j-shaped motion, in and then up. Repeat multiple times. If this does not dislodge the foreign object very quickly, you need to try to add more force with a stable object. In your immediate area, you need to find a stable object that is about waist high that you can bend over. A chair, a table, or a counter top will work well for this. With your hands still clasped in front of you, bend over the chair, table, counter, or other solid object. Brace your fists between the chair and your abdomen and drive your body against the solid object. This will greatly increase the force you apply to your diaphragm, which will be more effective to help dislodge seriously stuck foreign objects. You may not be able to dislodge the object during the first try. You need to quickly repeat pushing yourself onto the stable object until the object is removed. You should return to normal breathing once it is removed. Although it is very scary, it is better if you stay calm. Panicking will only increase your heart rate and need for air, which will make it worse. Once you have it dislodged, sit down and catch your breath. If you find that you are uncomfortable or your throat is sore, you may need to see your doctor. If you cannot get it dislodged, call 911.
A:
Drive your fist in and up. Add force with a stable object. Repeat.
