How to keep herbs fresh.
I purchased this cilantro 7/25. I had seen on Pinterest how to keep some herbs fresh. I first cut all the stems off about an inch. I then stood them up in a glass of cool water and put a plastic bowl cover over it. Refrigerate them.
Here it is 12 days later. Still fresh enough to use. This is the longest I have kept it. Mine usually gets soggy and moldy in the plastic bag from the produce isle.
Don't you just love Pinterest???!?!?!

Thanks for the tip. I usually kill my cilantro in two days!
This is a great tip! Thanks for sharing.
Yes, Pinterest is pretty nice and a real time consumer.
Have used that tip for parsley equally well. Thanks for the reminder, especially now that fresh herbs are so plentiful!
I spent much of yesterday on Pinterest with my almost 15 year old granddaughter. It was fun seeing the things she is interested in. So far I haven't spent much time on Pinterest, other than that. I think I'm scared of getting hooked on yet another thing!
Thanks for the Cilantro tip. Mine usually doesn't stay around long enough to wilt. I love my Pico de gallo!
Thanks for the tip, excellent to know...fresh herbs are hard to keep fresh! I am growing to love Pinterest too:)
