I recommend it for easy portioning. One other way of preserving a really fresh taste is to make a "cigar". Have you ever tried it? You wash and pat dry your herb (I do this with basil) and put it at the end of a piece of plastic wrap. I start to roll the plastic up while compressing the herbs tightly. Rolled, it looks like a cigar. I've actually used basil from one 3 years old and it still had a vibrant flavor. The only drawback for an herb cigar is that you have to slice off your portion and rewrap. I’ve used this method for years successfully. I recommend it for easy portioning.
