After watching one of your first videos about washing fruits and veggies and how you store them in mason jars, I started doing the SAME! Wow! Thank you! I’m so happy I found your video on KZread! What a blessing! I also bought some cutting boards and decorated my kitchen too!! 😂 love your kitchen! And I shopped on your Amazon page and bought some glass storage containers. Love your KZread channel! No more plastic! 💕❤️ I store my avocados with my lemons in the fridge as well. Thank you!! Watching from Long Island NY

Since I started washing berries using your methods everything lasts so much longer. It truly works and I am so thankful!

You are such a talented & very pretty woman, thank you for taking the time to teach us ways to save & preserve our good.

I just wanted you to know that I seen you when you first came out and made such a big hit on KZread with washing your produce. I did it it worked fabulously and then I got out of the habit of it, and I thought I just don't have time. Well I have thrown away I don't know how much produce and I have decided I will make time to wash them the proper way so I'm rewatching you today to get the full instructions on how to take care of my fruits and vegetables. And thank you so much.

I am so glad to hear that you are getting back to it. It will save you so much money and produce. Since making this video (my first one) I've made hundreds more on specific produce items which might be more helpful. You can go to my KZread page and there are playlists for fruits and vegetables where you will find directions for each item that are step by step and easier to learn from if you have trouble with this one. I appreciate your support!

Oh my gosh, I can’t wait to try some of these methods out! 🙌🏽 haha I always feel like I’m not washing things as well as I can but I never knew what I could wash them with that wouldn’t then add chemicals or toxic stuff on them. So helpful ! 🥳

You are welcome! Vinegar works well and is cheap which is why it is what I recommend. I have videos for most individual produce items on my channel as well if you want more specific directions.

while it's easier to reuse water that "looks good" pesticides and herbacides can be invisible and will stay in the water it's best to use fresh water each time....also you can still see the wax build up which holds the pesticides on the grapes and apples and anything waxed so I reco,mmend you add baking soda and it will COMPLETELY remove the build up....liked your video!!!

How do you store fresh ginger??? And what vegetables can I store ginger with?

I normally wash it then toss it into the vegetable crisper drawer. You can also freeze it

@lisas4453

freezing is best and you can also grate it in advance and it'll also keep in the freezer...it doesn't freeze completely but will last for months....can make ginger garlic paste if you use the two together a lot...pulse in a mini chopper until completely minced and store in refrigerator with a layer of oil on top to keep for weeks or also put in freezer and keep for months WITHOUT the oil

i peel the carrots and cucumbers b4 i juice.i wash everything else soaked first in bicarb soda.

How do you store cilantro after drying?

I allow it to dry for a few hours on the counter and then I put it in a glass jar with water like a vase of flowers. Store it in the fridge. You can see the entire process in this video as well: kzread.info/dash/bejne/kaOVtMmQZazRYqw.html

How long do you wash the cilantro for? What about broccoli? Please.

@TheCrossLegacy

Cilantro for two minutes and then I store it in a jar, you can see more in this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/kaOVtMmQZazRYqw.html Broccoli is also two minutes but I wash it in salt water as opposed to vinegar.

Why does my strawberries get such condensation on the jar? I do let them dry and then when i use i feel they are a little water logged. Suggestions. Does it mater what kind of jar you use?

I’m an overthinker so forgive the question but is vinegar really enough to take off the pesticides on them? Thnx

Pesticides end up in the ground water and grown into the plant no amount of washing is going to remove things that are poorly grown. The vinegar will remove mold spores, e coli, listeria and other harmful pathogens from the produce item.
