How to store fresh herbs from farmer market

It's summer time, and you can easily buy any kind of herbs from near by farmer market. The problem is if you have only 2 people at home, it's hard to consume a big bunch of herbs, like mint, cilantro, green onion... If you store it in a nylon bag directly after you buy it, it might not last freshly after 4 or 5 days, but you can't buy a smaller bunch every time. Here is the solution to let you store and use it for at least a week:

- Clean all herbs after you buy
- Use a salad spinners: I bought a very good Le creuset one at an outlet for just $10.



- When all the leaves dry, store it in clean bag or box, you can use for more than a week.
