Cuisipro tools have been created to perform specific tasks with precision and ease while always providing the finest results. The Herb Keeper is a smart storage tool to keep herbs fresh longer. The clear plastic container is 9-1/2-inch tall and holds large grocery store or farm market sized bunches of herbs. Use the knob on the lid to lift the tray, add about an inch of water to the bottom, and insert herb bunches into tray slots. The tray design allows the herb stems to hydrate while the leaves stay above water. Herbs like Rosemary, Thyme, Oregano and even Dill flourish in the herb keeper. Stalk vegetables like asparagus and celery also stay fresh and crisp in the Herb Keeper. Like fresh flowers, herbs need fresh water, refrigeration and a little space to remain fresh, colorful and crisp. The Herb Keeper is designed to fit in most refrigerator doors. | | | Features: | |

 It Works!Sep 08, 2009
By Eco Mama's Guide To Living Green
"www.ecomamasguidetolivinggreen.blogspot.com"
At long last I've found a way to sustain my Cilantro habit. Every single time I go to the store, I buy at least one bunch of organic cilantro as I put it in everything. But more often than not, part of it turns black before I get to it and wrecks the whole bunch. At $1.50 per bunch, it adds up. Growing it myself did not work at all, so I've been on the look-out for a solution. And guess what? I found it. Cuisipro's Herb Keeper really works and I've yet to throw away yucky black cilantro, or any other herb, since I've started using it.
I was skeptical about this at first, mainly because it's plastic and I have a thing against plastic, plus I suspected it contained BPA since it's a hard clear plastic. However, a rep at Cuisipro assured me that it is SAN plastic and does not contain BPA. I do wish it were glass, but that is my only complaint.
I've tried all sorts of ways to prolong the life of fresh herbs, and this is the most effective I've found yet. It's clean and easy to manage. You just wash your herbs really well, pull out any browning or black stems or leaves, and place the stems in the container on the stick. You fill the bottom a with about two inches of water (I change mine at least every other day) and lower the stick down into the water. And voila! Just snip off what you need, when you need it.

Less food waste! A Green Solution!Feb 20, 2010
By B-Bopp
I decided to take a chance on this item as part of my effort to reduce my food waste. Many food items can simply be bought in smaller quantities. But herbs generally come bundled. If I make a dish using cilantro, the remainder of the bunch goes bad before I can use it again. This container kept a bunch of cilantro going strong for almost four weeks! Yes, you do need to change the water-- every few days suffices and it's effortless to do. ( I've noticed a few negative reviews making reference to basil, and some confusion about refrigeration. Basil should *not* be refrigerated.)
Aside from impressively prolonging the freshness of herbs, this container has the added advantage of making your herb supply entirely visible. Countless times, I stuffed a plastic bag of herbs in my vegetable crisper, only to get lost among other bags. So I forget they are there, and then I buy a new bunch of the herb, when I already had the item. Oh yeah-- and plastic bags. I don't put my herbs in plastic bags at the grocery store anymore. I just buy them au natural and put them in my container when I get home.
In a effort to be as "green" as possible, I'm not a fan of buying gimmicky items. But this has become a very useful tool for me.

Excellent productDec 05, 2009
By Ron Cook
If you use fresh herbs this keeper is invaluable. We have 2 of them in the frig all the time. Simple to use, easy to clean, and they keep your herbs fresh for a week or more. I recently bought 2 more to give as gifts.

 A disappointment.Feb 11, 2010
By Pat Hancock
I ordered this for myself and daughter-in-law, hoping that it would help to prolong the life of my fresh herbs, but did not extend it much longer than just wrapping the ends in a moistened paper towel or placing in cup of water. It also is much larger than expected, so takes up a fair amount of space in the fridge. Nice idea but needs some design work.

Thin #7 plasticAug 13, 2010
By Liz in WA
This herb-keeper is fairly easy to handwash, but I like to stick just about everything in the dishwasher from time to time to get it *really* clean. This comes with a handwashing-recommended note. The markings on the #7 plastic container show a glass and a fork. I guess that means it's food-safe. But, was that marking put on before it came out that bisphenol-A is dangerous? IOW, is that why I shouldn't put it in the dishwasher? My chemist husband says after several washings it will be fine, even if heated and even if it does have bisphenol-A.
That's the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.
OTOH, the plastic is thin (compared to a drinking glass) but so far it seems sturdy enough.
It works great. I've always put my asparagus/celery/herbs in tall drinking glasses with an inch of water, or wrapped the base with a damp paper towel, and put a Zip-Loc bag over the top. But, this is better. The top part of the herbs doesn't get squashed when someone jams the milk into the fridge. It's lighter than glass. It keeps the stems off the bottom so water can be absorbed freely, and with its wide base it doesn't tip easily. It fits nicely on the refrigerator door.
I'm happy with it.
