NUTRITION PROS SHARE: HOW TO PRESERVE CORIANDER FOR LONGER
Expert opinion from Ramona Lehadus

Coriander can be frozen, regardless if it is fresh, dried or seeds. If it is fresh, the best way to freeze it is to chop it finely, put in a freezer bag and flatten it for easy use when needed; you can rip pieces off when you need and add them to your dish. You can also fill an ice cube tray with the chopped coriander and add a little olive oil or melted butter in each cube; this will make it very easy to use it, with an added bonus of a little fat which is always great, especially for steaks, roasts, grills or stews.

Yes, coriander can be frozen. When freezing it does tend to lose its shape, so is not ideal to use as a garnish in this way. A good idea is to chop it finely and freeze it with water in a ice cube tray so it can be added straight to dishes when cooking.

Yes, you can safely freeze coriander for up to 4 months. We sure to portion the coriander, place in a freezer bag, remove as much air before you seal the bag and place in the freezer.
