I actually cant remember the last time I haven’t had bread ready to go, this bread hack is a must do at 2:48 😉

@shopwithjen Год назад

Great tips!! Does anyone else NOT say the H in herb, or just me?? lol

@lilkitty2396 Год назад

over here in the netherlands most people freeze bread so i literally grew up doing it and learning that was the only way. i was absolutley flabbergasted that this wasnt universally a thing

@mommybreakdown Год назад

The healthy bread at my stores are OUT. OF. CONTROL. 💰 Freezing is a must. Thanks for a great video.

@megaplant6833 Год назад

“Bread garages” LOL. These are great tips though. We do a lot of these but the stale bread one is definitely one I want to try. Thanks!

@KristanShuford Год назад

For the fresh herbs, I’ve found that trimming the ends of the stems before you put them in the water also helps extend their life

@HealthNutNutrition Год назад

Oh gotta try that next time!

@chatgpt4135 Год назад

@@HealthNutNutrition Hey sister will you please tell which hospital it was where u gave birth that hospital in ur birth vlog, their service seemed amazing? Also which diapers did use for ur baby, and when at what months or age did u start using first diaper for baby?Thanks😊

@TheCrossLegacy Год назад

Filtered water, and trim the ends every 10 days. They will last for 6 weeks

@rbtalks1919 Год назад

I love to store my ripe avocados in water in the fridge. Green over 6 weeks later :)

@susanfreeman6350 Год назад

Great tips! If you make your own bread, NEVER refrigerate it! Slice, and always double wrap before freezing. Another good tip for bananas that are overripe: toss the entire intact banana into a sealed freezer bag and freeze them. Continue to collect them until you have enough for banana bread. Finally, every time you prep celery, carrots, or onions for other dishes, toss the clean scraps, including clean inner onion skins into a big freezer bag. Do the same for all poultry bones. When you have enough, use them to make delicious bone broth in your Instant Pot or Crockpot. There are tons of videos on RU-vid on how to do this. Loved the adorable clip of Sage with blueberries all over her face. So cute!

@SELFCAREMODEL Год назад

Nice !

@kimberlymayo9951 Год назад

Peeling the bananas first then freezing in freezer bag is so much easier. They are ready to go when you need them.

@smith899 Год назад

You and I share a brain! 🤣 I do peel and mush the bananas first, but other than that, we do that same stuff!

@HeronCoyote1234 Год назад

Thank you for mentioning well-wrapping the bread before freezing. Otherwise, I’ve found it gets freezer burn if thrown in the freezer while only in its original bag.

@HeronCoyote1234 Год назад

I’ve got a couple of other freezer tips. If you like hummus and it’s on sale, buy a ton, and toss them in the freezer. When you eventually defrost, they’re exactly the same, texture-and taste-wise. If you eat tofu and like it extra dense and chewy, throw it directly in the freezer when you get home. When you need it, defrost, drain and press as usual. It has a meatier, denser texture, and soaks up more marinade/flavor.

@thedupontnest Год назад

The sound of the kale was freakishly pleasurable 😅 thanks for the great tips!!

@violetqueen450 Год назад

Storing herbs in water is a great idea, but remember to change the water every couple of days or they will go bad.

@Randilynn66 Год назад

When I lived in Exeter Ontario, the local grocery store would mark the avocados to $.10 because at that time 15 years ago in that very small town nobody was buying avocados. Being from California it was such a score for me

@francesandrews5506 Год назад

Great video. I freeze loads too. We need a what I have in my fridge & freezer video

@AO-nr7kl Год назад

Great video, simple but useful ideas. I used dried out bread for panzanella salad during the summer and bread crumbs or croutons the rest of the year. Lots of uses for bread.

@kelsiyoung9330 Год назад

Thanks for these ideas, im definitely trying out the bananas hack now. The tip about the onions and potatoes really got me. I've been storing mine on the same shelf in the pantry for years and I've kept wondering why on the earth the potatoes kept sprouting SO fast. I used a lot of them in my garden to grow more potatoes, BUT didn't get to eat a lot of them lol. Thanks again!

@jewelofwisdom8279 Год назад

@HealthNut Nutrition I gave my onions stored in a bin in my pantry and potatoes stored on the opposite side, about 6 ft away. Is this far enough and will storing the potatoes in the dark brown bags be enough to compensate for the distance, as I want them both to stay in the pantry. Thanks in advance!

Store in a mason jar with metal lid and it will stay fresh up to a week, leaving the pit in and skin on also helps.

@reneeubry9065 Год назад

You can freeze cilantro and then cut off what you need to use you can also dry it and crush it into a jar so you have fresh dried cilantro . Instead of a dish towel use a clean dog pee pad and cut it in 4 pieces and put it with the plastic side down in the fruit or veggie drawer. Then just throw it away when you need to.
