Hello, everyone, this is jianshiji! To say that the vegetables that must be bought for the new year in rural areas are leeks, not only because they taste good and have a wide range of practices, but also because they have a beautiful meaning in them! Because the demand for leeks during the new year is relatively large, some vendors will take the opportunity to raise the price, and even the price is outrageous!
Leeks, different from vegetables such as potatoes, eggplant and pepper, can be purchased a few days in advance. The leeks bought back can be stored for up to 2-3 days and begin to wilt and turn yellow. Is there any good way to extend the shelf life of leeks? Little Jane specially consulted the vegetable farmer for this. He said that if you can't eat all the leeks, don't put them in the refrigerator. According to the soil method he taught, leeks will not be bad for 10 days, but they are still very fresh!
The first method: water preservation
Buy the fresh leek, size it up, then tie it with a rope, tighten it a little, put the root down in the basin, and add an appropriate amount of water. It's just past the root. In this way, it can be kept for about 5 days. It's very fresh and won't wilt!
The second method: cabbage leaf preservation
You may not understand this method. If you save leeks with cabbage leaves, they will not be bad for up to 10 days! The specific method is to buy the leek and tie it up with a rope. Take down several cabbage leaves, wrap the leek, and then tie the outer layer with a rope, a little tighter. This can ensure that the moisture of the leek will not be lost. It is especially fresh when eaten. This method is very available. You can try it!
The third method: newspaper preservation method
The leeks bought back shall be spread out to dry the water on the surface, the newspaper shall be spread on the ground, and then the leeks shall be evenly placed on the newspaper as thin as possible. Finally, the newspaper shall be rolled up slowly from one side, so that the leeks will be wrapped by the newspaper and placed in a place with relatively low temperature. Remember not to put the refrigerator! Because the newspaper has the function of absorbing moisture, the moisture produced by leeks will be absorbed in time, so the leeks preserved in this way can be kept for 10 days!
After learning how to preserve leeks, Jane will teach you how to remove pesticide residues in leeks! 1； Soak in light salt water for 15 minutes, not too long, so as to remove some pesticide residues. 2； The pesticide residues can also be removed by washing with clean water and gently rubbing with hands. 3； Soak in baking soda for 15 minutes, and then rinse with clean water.
