Do you use fresh cilantro? I have the dried version, as I find it goes bad quickly on me now that I have an empty nest.
Fresh cilantro is best. I found mine would go bad too when I bought the fresh stuff until I started freezing it. Now I’ve got it “fresh” when I need it! I usually wash it and chop it up soon after I get it, then I just keep it on the door of the fridge. Works great when it isn’t being used just to garnish a dish. I use frozen cilantro in my guacamole too….really in just about anything that calls for it! I do the same with my onions and peppers that I use for cooking…not if I’m gonna eat them raw though since it does make them a little soggy.
i know this sounds crazy, but I need a new food processor and remember the one you always used at home. But I can’t remember the model! Would you be so kind for details of the name of the food processor your family used?
