Preserving Cilantro
We need cilantro/coriander leaves/hara dhaniya/phakchi for almost everything. We use it in chutneys, garnishing, in vegetables, snacks, soups, etc etc...list is long. Today I am writing about its preserving for long time:
What we require:
Fresh cilantro
Kittchen tissue towls/paper
plastic container with cover/plastic bag
First Method
1. First of all, wash several times with fresh water in small bucket or pot.
2. Now give it a jerk by holding it in hands so that most of the water can be removed.
4. After that wipe out with any dry towel. By this time there will be no outer moisture of water with which we have washed it.
5. Now fold this washed and wiped out cilantro in a tissue paper and keep it in a plastic container and close the lid. alternatively it can be kept in plastic bag and tie the knot.
6. Now keep it in the refrigerator. By this method it can stay fresh more than one week.
Second Method
1. Wash and dry its moisture as written in first method from steps 1 to 3.
2. After wiping out its moisture, now cut it finely with a knife.
3. Keep it in any plastic container and close the lid or can be kept in plastic bag in flat position. Zip lock bag can be used.
4. Keep it in the freezer section of the refrigerator. Use it whenever it is needed. It can be used for months for everything.
Third Method
1.Wash and dry its moisture.
2. Now chop finely.
3. Spread it on any tray or on chopping board for 10 minutes,st that all its moisture evaporates which comes to it after chopping.
4. Now wrap it in a paper towel/tissue paper properly and keep it into a air tight container.
5. Keep it in the refrigerator and use as required for many days.
Enjoy Healthy Cooking!!!
