Does dried parsley go bad

Answer 1

Well, that depends on the type of ingredients the seasoning contains. For one thing, parsley is better stored dry, at room temperature and in a hermetic container. It can also be stored in the refrigerator, but due to de humidity it won't last as long. If you store it for more than two weeks this way, it will go bad. If the seasoning has other ingredients like eggs, cream, etc. you should also take into account how lond the parsley can be stored and how long the ingredients in the seasoning can be stored. Usually, after two weeks, it will start to get shriveled and get damaged this way. Hope it helps!
