Kitchen Hack: Don't forget to keep cilantro fresh using this neat kitchen trick. Simply washing it in cold water. Pat dry. Place stem side down into a cup of water. Cover leaves with a plastic zip lock bag and zip lock the cilantro leaves to keep them from being directly exposed to the refrigerator.
This hack works great and will save you from wasting a bunch of cilantro, Make plans to use your remaining cilantro in a curry dish, in some salsa, on nachos, in soups or simply on a salad.
