Do you buy fruits and vegetables regularly?
You're right, it's great for your health!
Especially if you choose organic and seasonal vegetables and fruits!
The problem is that fruits and vegetables don't keep very long...
Especially since everyone makes a mistake that decreases their conservation time!
What is this error? Simply wash them right after buying them . Explanations:
It may sound weird, but the layer of dirt on the vegetables plays an important role.
Indeed, they form a natural protection for your fruits and vegetables.
It is, moreover, the same mechanism with the damaged leaves.
This layer envelops fruits and vegetables and protects them from parasites and external aggressions.
But by cleaning them, this protective layer disappears!
As a result, your fruits and vegetables become more vulnerable, spoil more quickly and keep for less time.
There you go, now you know the mistake that everyone makes with fruits and vegetables :-)
It is therefore best to clean fruits and vegetables at the last moment, just before eating them!
This way you keep them longer without damaging them, with all their nutrients and vitamins.
Avoid letting yourself be influenced by the hygienist conceptions of our developed countries!
Know that this is also true for already washed fruits and vegetables which are much more fragile and keep for less time.
So I always advise you to buy your vegetables at the market so that they keep as long as possible.
Are you ready to cook your vegetables or eat your fruits?
Then it's time to wash them!
And to remove all traces of dirt and pesticides, there is a super effective grandmother's trick.
To disinfect fruits and vegetables, nothing beats white vinegar and baking soda!
