Dried herbs are best if used within 3 months of purchase. To keep track, mark the purchase date on a small piece of masking tape and attach it to the bottom of the jar or can.
Great Pairings
Easy Fried Mozzarella
Firm cheeses work best for this convenient appetizer. Use whatever cheese you have on hand, for the least expensive option, such as Cheddar, which usually costs less than mozzarella.
