Wrap the cilantro, unwashed, in paper toweling and place in a ziptop bag in the fridge.
To use: Tear off the amount you will use, rinse in cool water, pat dry, and chop.

Fresh cilantro stored in paper toweling should be good for 1 to 2 weeks.Alternatively, you can place the bunch into a glass of cool water and tent a plastic bag over the top.To freeze: chop washed cilantro and pack into ice cube trays. Top off with olive oil and freeze. Use as you would fresh cilantro in sauces and dressings.
