When you're cooking, the final product is only as good as the ingredients you use. The best cuts of meat, the ripest fruits and vegetables, and, ideally, fresh herbs. Nothing comes close the flavor of using, say, fresh basil in your pasta, over using the dried stuff kept in a jar over the stove.

The problem is fresh herbs only last a few days in the fridge. If you don't use it all, the rest goes to waste. The Prepara Herb-Savor let's you hold onto those fresh herbs longer.

Fill the base with water, snap on the plastic cover and place in the fridge. Your fresh-cut herbs should last about three weeks. Long enough for you to invite her over for another gourmet meal.
