How to preserve corriander leaves

I have been suffering a lot to store my coriander leaves and one day my surfing helped me a lot to get an idea that a Green house effect for this herb helps to preserve. So i tried out these techniques and amazingly it worked out :) I was able to store them without wilting or spoiling for more than a couple of weeks.
So i thought i can share with you all.
Once bought from store and back home from your shopping , snip off the roots of the coriander .



Fill a jar half way with water and place the cut ends of the herb in it 

You can leave this as such in room temperature if you are planning to consume the herb within a couple of days . But if you need to store for many days then , prefer covering the fresh leaves with a plastic bag loosely and store it fridge.

You can change the water every 2 days once or after you notice the colour change in water.
