Use the Freshest Ingredients

The Herb Savor is laboratory tested and proven to prolong the life of your fresh herbs for up to 3 weeks. The water well in the base of the Herb Savor irrigates your fresh herbs allowing the stems to draw up fresh water. Perfect for parsley, cilantro, asparagus, basil and more. For best results, change the well water every few days.

Modern and Clever Design

The Herb Savor features a modern design with a sleek white base and crystal-clear top cabinet. Thanks to the slim profile and non-slip base, it fits comfortably inside a typical refrigerator door while providing roomy vertical herb storage capacity. The easily refillable water well base ensures that herb stems sit slightly submerged in water, keeping them fresh. Use the removable stainless steel rinsing basket (located inside the clear cabinet) to easily wash fresh herbs and support them when storing.

Use fresh herbs to flavor soups, salads, marinades and more. In the Prepara test kitchen, herbs stayed fresh for over three weeks in the herb savor, compared to 3 to 5 days in the refrigerator only. Prepara's Herb Savor is 100% BPA free and top rack dishwasher safe. Use as part of a healthy lifestyle.

5.0 out of 5 stars It really works!!! May 1, 2008

Amazon Verified Purchase

I love fresh herbs but over the winter buy them (at high prices) at the grocery store and then HATE it when they go bad in days. With the Herb Savor, I've kept basil for more than two weeks and I've put basil and mint together with no cross flavoring. Fresh mint lasts a month.

The Herb Savor is easy to clean and use. In fact, I'm buying one for my mom for Mother's Day. I may get one for my sister while I'm at it. I had heard about this product but it actualy exceeded my expectations. It paid for itself with the first four batches of herbs that didn't go bad before I could use them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works though it has a lot of parts. July 24, 2008

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)

I hate having good herbs go brown and gross waiting for another dish I can use them in. Being able to water them, like any other plant, and keep them cool at the same time, is pretty useful. This definitely increases the life of the herbs. I do find there to be a lot of parts--the two halves go together, the little clip goes in, and then the whole thing goes into the stand. And the plug comes out for putting water in. It is a little tougher to assemble and disassemble than I thought it would be, but nonetheless it's very handy.

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)

This review is going to broken into parts, as a fair evaluation requires considerable time considering the "3 weeks fresh" claim. For this initial review we tested just under two weeks with Cilantro, a flat leaf parsley. One half of a large bunch was washed and put in a bag with damp paper towel, the other half put in the PHS according to directions, and refrigerated. At two weeks, both had instances of leaves turning brown, but on only a portion of the herb with a majority still usable. No clear advantage to the PHS though. Next we bought basil, and this gets interesting, as the PHS says to NOT refrigerate the basil, yet the fresh basil itself had instructions to do so. Half the basil washed and put in fridge with damp towel, half in PHS on counter away from stove. This test was discontinued after three days, as the basil in the PHS was decayed. I am now wondering if instructions from Prepara have changed, since others mention that basil was excluded from their instructions. I am going to have to give it a 2 1/2 total, since basil is one of the more expensive herbs, and this doesn't help there.
