Review on Preserve Fresh Herbs With Prepara Herb Savor Pod 2.0 by Tim Curd

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Keeps Herbs Fresh - A Little Tipsy in an Annoying Way

Overall, I like these pods. Their slim profile is deceiving, and they can hold a fairly large bunch of parsley, dill or cilantro. They keep these fragile herbs quite fresh, and I find it so convenient to keep the three pods handy inside the refrigerator door where they are easy to access. My previous storage method involved silicone bags which were often misplaced in my crammed to the limit, too small refrigerator. The one thing I dislike is that they are so tipsy and fall over easily, risking breakage. It is annoying! I can't see anyone storing these anywhere in the refrigerator without some kind of support ---the refrigerator door or possibly in a storage container that gives more stability. I use many fresh herbs, which can be expensive, and I hate any waste. I haven't wasted any herbs since I started using these pods, but I also use most herbs within two weeks of purchase. However, I've had rosemary in one for three weeks now and it is remarkably fresh. I have not stored basil in these pods and would be disinclined to because basil tends to brown in cold. I keep basil in a vase with water. I am glad I bought the pods, and I recommend them in spite of the tipsy design.

Pros
  • It is a great gift for foodies and home cooks who enjoy using fresh herbs in their dishes
Cons
  • The herb saver may be prone to leaking
