How to wash and store fresh lettuce

Here's how you keep lettuce fresher longer!

[@send917]

If lettuce drys out you can put it in a bowl of cold water and leave it in the fridge for about a hour it will become crisp again

Thankyou for the tips. :)

Hey, I’m from SWI. Your vastly amazing knowledge of plants blows my mind. You push me to ask my Mom about her plant knowledge again so I actually know what to do. She told me all of this when I was young. However, it went in one ear and out the other. Thank you!

Can I just say how lovely it is that you’re so knowledgeable and joyous?!

[@susanschuck8124]

Wonderful. Love your videos

[@angelamae3510]

I swear you're the modern day Martha Stewart! And I mean that as a compliment! Love your videos..

[@PNWPATRIOT206]

Yea sorry but this is the absolute worst way to store lettuce. It needs to be in water with some salt til it's ready to be eaten, storing it in a sealed bag allows bacteria to form and flourish.

[@flores8389]

I do this with all my fruits and vegetables. They do last at least for two weeks.

[@m1sschocolateface]

Does this work for washed then spinned spinach?

[@diananoonen2262]

In Italy I learned to fill a bin with salt the bugs drop off! I will repeat 2-3 times. Works great! I will add the spinner great idea.

[@gitanjalianand3543]

Leave the leaves attached and put them in a plastic bag without washing and seal the opening with a clip - they last really long! Wash as many as you wish to eat - last really a long time

Thank you so much!!! I learn so much from you.

He looks like a kind of guy that uses the word “Fabulous” a lot

[@holyexperience1976]

I wish I can hear that commonly used word from someone ( as long as it used for right reasons ) instead of the four lettered vulgar F word.

[@sandratowers573]

I absolutely love you, you’re so awesome 🤩

[@hararingloss3304]

I normally keep the leaves in cold water and they last a very long time. Or keep it whole , dry in a plastic bag with a moist paper towel around the stalk in the fridge. Lasts fresh for a week or two.

[@puremotion2212]

Thank you so much !!!

[@isadorafreespirit]

[@dsb227]

[@Yamiyamzzzzzzz]

Thanks dude

[@shelleypenn7577]

Yay👏👏 thank you!

[@saigeconnolly]

Martha vibes dude 😎 you're amazing

[@vickymendoza1910]

I've been doing this for years and very seldom stays fresh. Im currently trying the foil paper method to see how it works.

[@geraldinelowery9431]

Beautiful lettuce thanks

[@nancyhoffman9336]

Can we leave them in the bowl that comes with the spinner? I do and mine is fine for at least till I finish a couple salads. I usually buy red leaf. Thank you. ❤

[@xeros420]

would it help if I put a sheet in between every few leaves? I just saw a similar video, just with an additional 2 or three sheets

[@janetrea8340]

I like those plastic bags you used. Where do you buy them.

[@donnawatkins8404]

Just use the bags your loaf of bread comes in. Works great.

[@KernWilliams84]

Is there a link to this salad spinner

[@pookiepoopiepants]

You are the best

[@lorrem2539]

Just like I do it👍🙂

[@valeriesanders4917]

Where did you get your salad spinner?

[@gigivi903]

You can clean uour lettuce with water with vinegar to clean the little bugs

[@denisemezynski8014]

The amount of time MOST do not have, lolol!!

[@draconian_rebel]

Mr. Bean did it with a sock 🧦

[@linseyc.6602]

💕💕

[@jessicalt4121]

Store it wrapped in foil with pt helps too.

[@mystiecrosariol9334]

Can you do the same thing with say a bag of salad? You know the ready to eat stuff.

[@PNWPATRIOT206]

Never leave it in a sealed bag, that's how it goes bad faster then in water..

[@ronellepatterson4176]

I used aluminum foil and mine last for 3 weeks. Could have lasted long but we ate it all

[@holyexperience1976]

The sooner eaten the better....

[@patricialopera2215]

Wrap in aluminum foil. You will have fresh lettuce for One month

[@ddneq677]

Those legs tho 👀👌

[@atticusfinch4266]

Please stop running the water. Either shut it off and turn it back on or fill up a bowl with water. Please.

[@BBAY-sr1ml]

I would have ate it by the time this finished. Get a life

[@K.L.-]

Good for you

[@Loralanthalas]

You finished munching that lettuce yet?

[@holyexperience1976]

He has a life.
