Honestly, keeping track of fresh herbs can be a pain. There’s something about letting them go bad that makes you feel bad. Fortunately, this viral herb saver may be just what you need to keep your cilantro, chives and dill fresher for much longer.
Cooks know that fresh herbs are king in the kitchen. There’s nothing better than crispy chives on top of your Gordon Ramsay-style scrambled eggs in the morning. However, if herbs are hard for you to track down and even harder to keep fresh for long periods of time, this herb saver from Amazon is a tool you will adore in the kitchen.
The viral video showcasing how to save herbs comes from TikTok user @miriam.gin1 who says, “If you love fresh cilantro, parsley, mint, basil or other herbs, you need this pod.”
In the video, she shows how to use the pod. She puts a stack of cilantro in the pod and packs it with fresh water. You can easily fit the pod in the fridge. Plus, when you change the water every three to five days, your herbs can last for up to three weeks.
Shop: Prepara Herb Saver
The viral TikTok video has 5.7 million views and almost 500,000 loves. However, Amazon shoppers love it, too. It is already an Amazon Choice product, and shoppers give it four out of five stars. Over 1,000 customers have also given the popular pod positive reviews. One shopper who left five stars said they gifted the pod to someone and they approved.
“I bought this for a friend who is always telling me how much she loves this product,” they wrote. “She buys parsley every week at the grocery store and she would keep it in the bag. Now she puts it in this and she says she gets to use all of her parsley instead of throwing it away when it gets old. She says it will keep her parsely up to a week instead of days in the plastic bag it would come in. I’m going to buy one for myself.”
Another shopper, who only left four stars explained how the herb saver doesn’t store too many herbs at once.
“Super chic. Love how it looks and the idea of it,” they said. “But this Hispanic woman loves her cilantro and only 10 percent of the store bushel fits. I will continue to use for the leftover cilantro, but will have to continue to look for one that fits more. But if you do not mind the small amount it fits, it will be great. It does keep it fresh way longer and looks great in the organized fridge.”
From a customer’s stance, this nifty gadget is great for the longevity of your herbs. Yes, it is small, but that’s actually a positive if you don’t have a massive fridge.
