I've been growing my own herbs for the last couple of months now and it's getting to the point where I have more than I can handle. There are only so many Italian nights that I can use my basil on and so much cilantro that I care to use at once. But still, my herbs are my babies and I want them to last as long as possible after I pick them. Unfortunately organic produce doesn't last long due to the lack of pesticides so using an herb keeper is the way to go.

What I really like about the Herb Keeper by Gourmet2Day is that it's slim and easy to use. You just have to fill the jaw with water, put your herbs in and place it in the fridge. It's size is great because it's not too tall or wide so it doesn't take up too much space in my refrigerator.

I also like that I don't have to remove the entire cup in order to get the amount of herbs I'm looking to get thanks to the ladder hooks.

Gourmet2day says that this will keep herbs for at least two weeks and I'm really hoping that that's the case. If that's the case I'm going to get another one just for my basil because those grow like crazy!
