A rare housewife buys leafy greens and immediately starts cooking: sometimes we are used to storing greens so that there is always an opportunity to prepare a light and healthy dish for lunch or dinner. However, everyone knows that salad leaves lose their freshness very quickly. In order to avoid this, you need to use three simple secrets.
When stored in a crushed form
Some housewives want to make their task easier, so they chop greens in advance and send them to the refrigerator for storage.
This is a proven method, but it is important to know one simple rule: it is absolutely not worth using a knife.
Due to the contact of greens with metal, there is an irreversible change in taste qualities. It is for this reason that chefs always shred lettuce with only their hands.
Natural fabric
There is an interesting trick that will keep lettuce fresh for a week. You need to take a piece of cotton cloth, wet it and wring it out. The salad is taken out of its package and wrapped in the material.
Make sure that the fabric does not dry out.
Container
You can do it in an even more interesting way. Lettuce should be washed and dried naturally at room temperature.
Then we take a container, on the bottom of which we put a paper towel and the first layer of salad leaves. We cover it again with a towel.
Each subsequent layer of salad is "closed" with a paper towel.
Thanks to this, greens can also be stored for a whole week.
