Instructions

  • Clean The Cilantro Thoroughly
    Once you purchase cilantro from the market, cut the ends of the cilantro with a knife and then clean with cold water.
  • Dry The Leaves
    Dry the leaves thoroughly with a paper towel or leave them to dry. 
  • Use Container Filled With Water
    Use a container or a bowl filled with water. Then put the cilantro in the water such that all the stems are fully submerged while the leaves are exposed above the water surface. 
  • Cover Cilantro With Plastic Bag
    Take a plastic bag or polythene and cover the top of the cilantro. But do not tighten it with a rubber band. 
  • Keep The Container In Fridge
    Keep the glass bowl or container with cilantro in the fridge. You will observe that this process will increase the shelf life of cilantro.
  • Change The Water Periodically
    The water becomes discolored after a few days, which may affect the shelf life of cilantro. So you need to change the water within two to three days.
