It’s strawberry season. When will it end and how to wash them to keep them fresh for a long time?
Many strawberry lovers will be pleased that the strawberry season lasts from May until the end of July. We usually buy larger amounts of fruit, storing them for a few days to serve us as a snack or addition to cakes or smoothies. nUnfortunately, incorrectly washed strawberries can spoil the very next day, overgrowing with mold. This can be prevented by cleaning the fruit more thoroughly immediately after bringing it from the market or store. Thanks to this, we will get rid of sand, pesticides and parasites, and this will make them stay fresh longer.
Take the products from the cabinet and wash the strawberries thoroughly. They won’t spoil as quickly
If you are wondering how to effectively wash strawberries so that they stay fresh longer and are really clean, use one trick. To make it, you need water, baking soda and vinegar. How to do it was shown by Agata from the @declutterpl profile on Instagram. First, soak the strawberries in vinegar water for three minutes. Use half a cup of apple cider vinegar per liter of water. This will get rid of any bacteria. Then you need to soak them for three minutes in water with baking soda (a tablespoon of powder per liter of water) to remove pesticides. Finally, just rinse the strawberries in clean water and you’re done.
The trick for washing strawberries, which Agata showed, aroused considerable interest among Instagram users. The material has been played over a million times, and about 400 comments about this method have been left in the comments section. Many people admitted that they do not wash strawberries at all and have no intention of doing so. Others, however, admitted that they use the method presented by Agata and are satisfied with it.
Yes Yes Yes! I’ve been washing fruit this way for several years (I always try to do as much as possible at a time, I prepare two bowls – with vinegar and soda) and I wouldn’t change it to rinsing only under water.
Yes, the biggest difference I see in apples! Instead, I use vinegar and a special liquid for washing fruits and vegetables.
Wow, I didn’t know that, and yesterday I bought a whole bunch of strawberries…
Thank you, I had no idea.
