Prepara is a small company based right in New York City. They make sleek, modern-designed kitchen tools that try to answer old problems in new ways. We had seen one of their signature products, the Herb-Savor, around the blogosphere, but we were slightly skeptical of its claims to make that $5 bunch of herbs last for weeks. Then we met Evan from Prepara at the Housewares show and he gave us a demonstration. Take a look!
More info on the Herb-Savor is below.
The design of the Herb-Savor is very clever and well thought-out, and we found ourselves much more drawn to it after we saw it in person! Granted, we tend to recreate this gadget in our own refrigerator with a cup of water and a plastic bag, but it's a bit of a hassle and gets tipped over easily. The Herb-Savor is very attractive; if someone gave it to us we'd probably use it a lot!
• Buy the Herb-Savor through Prepara, $29.95
Watch for more new stuff from Prepara soon - we have some very cool stuff to show you.

I saw a lot of positive feedback on this at Serious Eats., and I'm very tempted to break the buying freeze for this. Even my husband just sent me the link, which makes it sound like an endorsement...

I got one for my birthday a few weeks ago! It's amazing!
Only thing is it doesn't work for basil--says so right on the instructions--which is interesting. I wonder why that is?
Anyway, I love it! I can finally keep coriander around long enough to use it all up!
