well, today's tip of the day is with cilantro. it is so many different recipes because the flavor that it gives and it enhanceness and creates. it is fresh. it is wonderful. storage is important. besides hispanic dishes and asian dishes, i put them in so many different dishes. when you buy, make sure it is green like this. any yellow whatsoever, it has to have that wonderful aroma and stand like this. cilantro in the market, too long will wilt and a little yellowing loses its properties and flavors so don't compromise. thn you bring them home, put e emrefrigerator right away. open the plastic bag a little bit, but i like to store it's only for about a day, because as long as you have it, the

flavor will start to go away and that you don't want. eat fresh and stay healthy. just, so good. coming up font on the kpix5 news at 5:00, tragedy in muir wood es when five trees come crashing by ch the warriors christmas surprise for bay area kids. those stories and more coming up tonight at 5:00. that will do it for us. >> thanks for joining us and spending part of your christmas with us here. whether you celebrate or not, we're glad you did. >> have a great day.
