How do i dry out chives?

Question:

Answers:
Dried chives are not as flavorful as fresh chives,
since chives lose much of their flavor when dried. A pot
of chives is easy to keep inside and is productive all
winter.

To dry chives, cut tops from the plant before flowers
form. Chop in 1/4-inch pieces. Do not wash, but discard
any dirty pieces.
