Let’s learn how to clean fruits with one simple tip!
There is more we can do than just rinse our fruits and veggies with just water! Some fruits with skin that we won’t eat like oranges, avocados, or papaya, for example, can be washed with soap and water. However, I like to clean most of my fruits and veggies using vinegar and water, that is my one way to clean fruits! Especially the fruits we eat the skin. It makes me feel good when I know I am doing a little extra work to keep my fruits and veggies cleaner and away from any possible virus or bacteria. Let’s learn how to clean your fruits with one simple tip.
Be mindful that this mixture that I am about to show you is not supposed to eliminate the COVID virus, but it should help.
You can use a bowl or a bigger container like a mixing bowl, then add one part white vinegar and five parts water. It’s okay if you add a little extra vinegar in the mixture. Before you add the fruits or veggies into the bowl with the mixture, be sure to rinse them under running water to remove any soil or debris that might be on them. After that, leave the produce in the mixture for about 10 minutes and rinse well. It is also important to let it dry thoroughly before you put the produce in the fridge.
When you have a variety of fruits and vegetables, try to wash these separately. On another note, some people may think that vinegar changes the taste of the fruit or veggie, but I never taste the vinegar. Learn how to clean fruits with this one simple tip!
