Great video! One more tip: add two tablespoons of white vinegar to a bowl of water. Dip all your berries and fruits in this then let them dry on a clean towel before putting into the fridge. It kills the bacteria that causes them to rot. They should last longer. You won’t taste the vinegar once they are dry.

What kind of ratio? I would imagine if you go too strong, you just end up with all your fruits and veggies with a vinegar flavor...giggle. Do you use just white vinegar?
@KellyC1207011 ай бұрын
@@TheStoneWhisperer I don’t really measure. Maybe 1/4-1/2 Cup for a big big bowl of water. Then I rinse the fruit/veg. There isn’t any vinegar flavor/smell remaining. I alternate with baking soda now. Sometimes vinegar, sometimes baking soda(removes pesticides)
@truesight9110 ай бұрын
While there is no actual proof that it removes pesticides, It may only removes the pesticides in the skin, what about the pesticides inside of the fruit? they are sprayed throughout all stages of growth.

Thanks for this video! 😊 There are also ways to refresh wilted, shriveled veg - e.g. Put wilted leaves in a bowl of water, some ice cubes and couple hours in the fridge and they'll expand and be nice and crunchy again. The same for soft wrinkly root vegetables carrots, radishes etc. (no ice cubes needed). Carrots are also best stored in a jar with some water like the asparagus in the video. Also make sure to see if at least part of a fruit or vegetable can be saved.

Unwashed berries in a mason jar in the fridge lengthens the life and keeps things like grapes more “crisp”. Lettuce 🥬 washed chopped and put in a reusable ziplock with a paper towel and then not sealed all the way keeps it and makes it easy to grab for salads too. The cilantro trick works for most of the other fresh herbs too. I keep my onions in the veggie drawer, makes you not cry while chopping. Nuts in mason jars and in the fridge too!

Hi Guys, Great, Informative and fun video, I learned so much....Thanks! I do want to offer some advice on leafy greens for those of us who don't eat them enough unless they are ready to grab and eat right out of the fridge.....I know it's best to wash only right before eating them, but, for example, if I want to make a salad, the thought of having to wash AND DRY my greens first sometimes stops me....so, I find if I wash my greens as soon as I get them home, lay them on clean tea towels to dry for a couple hours, then put them in airtight containers in the fridge, they will last 7-10 days! Knowing I can just grab ready to eat greens is helpful for me.
