Herbs are versatile plants with flavorful and aromatic properties with a plethora of applications, including the flavoring of food products, personal care products, and medicinal purposes. Herbs are extensively used in many industrial applications. However, the use of herbs is limited due to the fact that they are highly perishable in nature. Herbs are preserved and prevented from spoilage by using several drying techniques that remove the water content from them and convert them into a dried format. Dried herbs have increased shelf life and concentrated flavors, which makes them a popular ingredient in the food processing industry. Besides, dried herbs are used in pharmaceuticals, due to their medicinal properties, and in the formulation of cosmetics and personal care products.
