How Do You Keep Chopped Cilantro Fresh?
To keep chopped cilantro fresh for longer, start by washing the cilantro and drying it thoroughly. Then, chop the cilantro and place it in an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag. Before sealing the container or bag, place a paper towel inside to absorb any excess moisture. Store the cilantro in the refrigerator and replace the paper towel as needed to keep it fresh for up to two weeks.
