Dry moringa leaves or seeds are a delicious part to any meal. This article will tell you how to dry them.
Drying the leaves
Cut a bunch of leaves off a tree about 3 inches (7.6 cm) long. Alternatively you can buy some.
Wash the leaves and clear off any dead or infected parts.
Get out some string and tie the ends of the leaves together.
Hang the leaves upside-down in an enclosed place like a porch.
Place a sheet or similar object underneath to catch any oil that might stain the ground.
Leave the leaves for about a month or until they will snap off quite easily at touch.
Store the leaves in a plastic container.
Drying the seeds
Gather a cup full of Moringa seeds.
Get out a frying-pan.
Place two tablespoons of oil in it.
Turn on the stove until most of the oil dissolves.
Wash the seeds.
Place them in the pan on a low to medium heat. After a while they will start to pop.
Let the seeds cool.
