No, this is not some new popsicle flavor. I came up with this idea because I often buy cilantro for one specific recipe and never know how to use up the rest before it goes bad. This solves the problem and I love having it on hand.
Chop up entire batch of cilantro. Put in an ice cube tray in relatively equal amounts – I put 1 or 2 Tbsp. in each section. Add just enough water to keep it together, pushing the cilantro down in if necessary. Freeze. Pop the ice cubes out and store in a zip lock freezer bag. Indicate on the bag how much cilantro each ice cube contains so it’s easy to know how many ice cubes you need when your recipe calls for fresh cilantro. Problem solved!
