Topic: How can I prolong the life of my fresh Coriander?

[spicymatt]

A couple of points,

1. Always cut off the bottom 1 or 2 cm of the stalks before putting the bunch in a glass of water. No idea why this works but it does.

2. Remember to let the water stand for about 30 mins or so before using. This gives the dissolved chlorine a chance to evaporate and so not poison the plants.

You should be able to keep the coriander fresh for 4 or 5 days, but you might need to change the water after the second day. Hope this helps.
