The bagged salad has this habit of rotting quickly, once the bag open.
The sachet is barely opened when the salad is already withered and rancid.
Fortunately, there is a simple and effective trick to keep bagged salad longer.
The simple trick to keep it is not to close the bag.
1. Open your bag of salad.
2. Take the salad you need.
3. Leave the bag open.
4. Put it back in the fridge.
There you go, you can keep your salad in a bag for longer :-)
No more waste and salad thrown in the trash!
Moisture escapes and the salad stays dry!
Try it, it's amazing.
The reflex, when you want to keep the salad, is to close the bag tightly.
It works for all foods, we wrap them and it keeps better.
But the salad, unlike a lot of foods, does not support humidity. Too much moisture causes it to rot.
You see it when you leave a salad for not even an hour in a salad bowl with vinaigrette...
Why ? When you close the bag of salad with a rubber band, the salad tends to sweat, even in the fridge. You can see it on the sachet, there is a little mist on it.
The problem is that this excessive humidity will cause your lettuce leaves to rot like when they are in vinaigrette.
If you don't want to leave the bag open in your fridge, here is another way to store your salad leaves by closing the bag.
