If you freeze ginger it grates beautifully from frozen. You just grate the amount you need then put the rest of the ginger root back in the freezer. Will last for months that way.

[@suzyshomestead]

What a great tip Leah! Thanks! 👏🏾👏🏾

[@magdalinemaina5160]

Sure this how I keep ginger and it's good to go for months

I agree with you in my country we are onion consumers so it Onion season...our moms can buy it from farmers like 100kg can be shared with 4 families like my mother used to share it with her friend 50kg each it lasts for 4months. They make sure they put it out for sunshine

I store my parsley the same way you store your coriander, it strores well for several weeks and when I use green onions or chives I place the bottoms in water and let them grow roots then I plant them, I do this with romaine lettuce, and butter lettuce as well.

[@asyanasser7597]

For the ginger it's very true if you mix with garlic and make a paste. But I just put in airtight bottle in the fridge and use as needed. Came to realize how much I am saving on this idea👌

[@suzyshomestead]

Amazing tip girl! 👌🏾👌🏾

[@familyhour351]

I do that too... And it remains fresh and good for upto 3 months

[@anastasiatheuri3121]

@Asya Nasser Do you add water or oil in the mixture?

Ginger,lemons,garlic you can just store them at the counter they don't go bad easily they are antibacterial no bacteria can go near them,thats why you can keep either Avocado and other fruits near them and don't go bad or change colours,also coriander you can store them in an airtight container but make sure you have wiped the water then put a towel or serviette,then put in the fridge, carrots you can also toa maganda wash them store in a container put in the fridge

You l love your neatness. One other hack of keeping tomatoes flesh that i have used for a year and months is you buy your tomatoes but you don't wash them from the market. Get a bowl with some ash and put them with the part where the stem was cut from facing upwards and they can last for 2 weeks. But these shouldn't be too ripe. Thanks for the other new hacks. kindly share with me the type of fridge, i need a nice one like that. Thanks Dear

[@tracykamauadeleke]

Hi, good stuff. Good to learn about carrot storage. Next time I go to Marigiti I will stock up. Another storage method is putting toothpicks inside the storage jars to pick on moisture. Newspaper usage in wrapping potatoes, sweetpotatoes or laying tomatoes in them for longer. Could you make a video on making simsim balls? Thanks

[@brendatirok6089]

Another way to store Ginger which works best with me is putting them in a container with water, close it tight then change water after a week. It will last up to 2 months.🤗

[@suzyshomestead]

That should work too Brenda, since they are root vegetables like carrots. I wonder if the same applies to beetroots? I've thrown away enough in this home why lie! 🙈🙈🙆🏾‍♀️🙆🏾‍♀️

[@annieb8928]

You can also put ginger in a zip lock and freeze it. You just have to leave it out to thaw enough to cut before using.

[@Agishawashere.g]

For tomatoes put them together with lemon.Tomatoes will just stay fresh.

[@suzyshomestead]

Thanks for the tip Gudah!💐

[@dianehowarth6222]

[@a.h.pcollective3525]

these are really great tips. avocados are also my favourite fruits. do not leave your carrots in water on the counter top, they will start to grow as that is the way to prepare them for planting

[@joyabo9590]

Wow, Suzie! Thanks for the many lovely tips. I have learnt something new about tomato storage. For the crisper drawer, another hack is to place a towel (reusable or disposable) to suck all moisture out and the fruits and vegetables will thank you for it.

[@suzyshomestead]

Thanks for the tip Joy!💐🌺

[@jackiesnest921]

Thank you Suzzy for the great hacks, the carrot hack is something new to me.This I must try

[@mercykobu]

Great hacks, thanks as always! Here's to more long lasting fruit and veggies! About the onions, I heard it's dangerous to keep onions that have been cut or sliced. They have the ability to "clean" or cleanse whichever space, so they absorb all the germs and all...

[@suzyshomestead]

Very true Mercy. So for cut onions we should keep them in an airtight container. Forgot to say that. 🙈😂

[@hildahsmith222]

What's airtight container .. n still put in a fridge

For tomatoes, you can put in a freezer bag and put in the freezer. Rinse off when you need to use and it chops nicely

I’m really impressed with how the carrots survived. I tend to line the fruit and veg draw with paper towel, absorbs the moisture and easy to clean later. Thanks for the tips. 👍🏾
