Step by Step
1
Wash the cilantro very well.
2
Soak it for a few minutes in water.
3
Shake off excess water and dry with a paper towel.
4
Without separating the bunch, start cutting from the leaves. It is not necessary to separate the leaves from the stems, as you can use the stems as well. Do not use the thick stems; only cut the softer ones.
5
Chop it as finely as you like, but be careful not to crush it; cilantro can turn black very quickly.
