shopping
Choose cilantro that is fresh and vibrant in color. Avoid bunches with leaves that are yellowing, showing dark, slimy parts, or are speckled in color.
storage
To store cilantro, place the root ends in a jar of water, then place in the refrigerator where it should keep for about two weeks. Snip or pick off leaves as needed and refresh water every couple of days.
preparing
Rinse cilantro by submerging it in water and swishing around gently. Pat dry with a paper towel to get rid of any excess water. Decide how much of the stems you want to keep and chop off the rest to discard. Fold the cilantro leaves in half and use a rocking motion to chop through - go back through to make sure it’s all chopped.
