  • Here is an old Chinese trick: fill a small clay pot (that has a lid) with plain white sand. Store fresh gingerroot by burying it in the sand. It will keep for months! Much better than those dried up roots you find on your refrigerator shelves.

  • A good way of preserving herbs that won't last in the refrigerator, like extra basil or cilantro, is to finely chop them and freeze with a small amount of water (just enough to hold it together) in ice cube trays. You can then pop the herbsicles out of the tray and store in a plastic food storage bag. When you need to add an herbal zip to soups, sauces or other recipes, just toss in a cube.
