I have been following the method in this video for almost 9 months now, and let me tell you, it is SHOCKING how well it works! I will pull out some cilantro weeks later stored with this method and it tastes and looks amazing! Thank you so much for this video, I had almost given up buying cilantro due to frustration with storage, I didn't think it was possible. It is so nice to have it available anytime I need it. I started using micro-fiber clothes instead of paper towels and it works great too

Thank you for the helpful tips. Giggled out loud when you heard the baby and said "Of course." Bless you and your family. Be well...💜

Cilantro is an essential part of my cooking every week and this has been the perfect tip to keep it fresh without going to the store twice a week to pick it up, thank you!

I love hearing the BABY🤣👼SHE IS SUCH A CUTIE!!!BLESS her wants fresh veggies too🤣🤣

Been doing this for years...I tend to wash first, then let air dry for a few hours on a cloth towel and then do exactly as you do. For cilantro, you can also cut and freeze the stems which are great for cooking. Regular parsley can also be cut fine and frozen in a jar and used for cooking. Anyhow, nice video and I am subscribing...hope the baby is now enjoying your food!

Excellent tip. I hate digging out dead cilantro out of my fridge.

Tried this for some fresh curly parsley and some cilantro (coriander leaf) This method works like a charm and now 2 weeks on the fresh herbs are in the fridge in a sealed polythene box and as fresh as the day they went in. I've dipped into them for cooking and it's proving a perfect way to store it and not have to throw any away. Only one parsley leaf turned half yellow in 2 weeks. I call that a great method and thanks for the tip.

One other tip to go with this great video. Save the cut root ends from the green onions and poke them in your garden. They grow new green onions.

AMAZING video, thank you so much! I’ve thrown away bushels of rotted slimy cilantro and green onions in my life. Will begin doing this right away-makes so much sense. Good for the budget, good for the planet!

I am SO thankful I watched this…I’ve been storing my cilantro wrong and getting frustrated when it got slimy before I used it up. Great tip! I put the root end of my green onions in a pot with dirt on my kitchen windowsill and have fresh green onions all the time. I just cut off what I need and let them keep growing.

👍 I honestly love basic kitchen tips videos from cooks with excellent skills. I either learn something new or feel satisfied that we're doing the same thing if that makes sense. Have a great weekend, guys. Stay safe.

I have been doing this for years. Also, I put a sheet of paper towel inside the salad tub to keep the salad last longer.

Thank you so much, my cilantro was always spoiling too fast and great idea for the green onions also.

Wow, I literally just went and got my cilantro out of the fridge and did this. Thank you😊

I cut the green part of green onions and put the white one in the jar with 2 inch of water , it grows and I use the green part at list 4 -5 times ! I have 4 bunch of green onion all winter in jar ready to use 😊

I've started doing that a couple years ago. I was tired of throwing out green onion, cilantro, parsley after a week. I also go through the cilantro, green onion etc every week to remove the bad parts and sometimes after a couple of weeks I change the paper towels if they get soiled.

I also do the cilantro that way, but additionaly trim off about a 1/2 inch fresh cut from the dark stem endings.

Thank you. I love cilantro so much, it makes me cry when it goes bad. I tried to grow it and can't.

The paper towels won't be "dirty" after use unless the cilantro rots. Barely damp, easy to let dry and use for cleaning. Any kitchen paper towel that I use to dry anything already cleaned gets laid out to dry, only thrown away when it gets soiled.

Thank you so much for putting out this video. I’ve been doing it all wrong. Great job!!

Thank you so much for this video. I gave a definite thumbs up! One thing I would like to point out is that you don't have to dry the cilantro/green onion or whatever with disposable paper towels!! My parents always did this with tea towels or hand towels that you just throw in the laundry when you're done. It works wonderfully, just like you show and costs less in the long run. We don't need to be sending so much stuff to the garbage. Thanks again for all the effort you do to show this technique so we aren't sending all this produce to the garbage as well!!! Excellent 👏.

Thank you so much! This is super helpful. My cilantro keeps getting bad too early, the step about cutting the bad cilantro is very important.

Great video, great tips! Love your energy in it as well! Thank you for making this

That is an amazing tip! Thank you very much! 🥰

I love this. I am going to try wrapping in old flannel sheets that I have cut up. I have tried that with home made bread or rolls and it works well (they don't last for weeks but definitely keep fresh longer)

Thanks from Germany for showing this.I will do it from now with my cilantro and spring onion. I can use it for longer time. 🤗

Great! Thank You!! & Happy New Year!

Thank you! Excellent tutorial! I'm inspired and excited to buy both cilantro and green onion next time I shop. I will be using this method. Very happy to learn this

Fantastic! Thank you 🙂

I have been doing this wrong! I put it in airtight containers but i often leave a wet tissue in there to keep it moist. Seems like keeping it dry is the way to go! Thank you :)

Thank you for this tip!!

I do exactly the same except that I wash it well and put it through a sieve for a few hours to drain any excess water ,and then put it in the fridge that way its always clean and ready to use.
