I have frozen dill. When it thawed there was a red liquid, what is it? Is the dill safe to use?

Question

The dill was picked and put in food saver bags last year. When I thawed it in the refrigerator and opened the bag a red liquid appeared. It looked like the dill was bleeding. Can I still use the dill?

Answer 1

It is best to store dill dried, and not frozen. It will break down and liquify. This will not be harmful in any way, but the taste may be affected quite drastically.
