When I get home from shopping every week, I fill my sink with water and vinegar. As I unload my bags, I just drop my produce in the sink to soak until I'm done with everything else. And then I process and store it immediately. Then everything is clean and instantly consumable for my family.

@hannahkayee831 2 года назад

Going to try this seems alot easier, than what I've been doing.

@kristinanoall 2 года назад

I just can’t…with all the nasty food bits and who knows what that go through my sink on the daily, plus the hard water, the gunk that I know resides in the drain, even when I try to clean it… 🤣 Do you sanitize your sink first?

@BDidion123 2 года назад

@@kristinanoall you could buy a wash tub from Dollar Tree to use for produce washing. That is what I do.

@micahmiller5923 2 года назад

@@kristinanoall yes, I sanitize it first. I will Scrub it out with a bleach based cleaner like Soft Scrub. Then, rinse with scalding water. Then clean with a fresh dishcloth and an all purpose cleaner like Meyer's. Then I dry the sink with a clean dry tea towel. My stopper is always washed and resides in my dish rack to keep it free from mildew. And I always clean all dishes, loading into my dishwasher, before I clean the sink. The point is to ensure my sink is completely free from particles and debris before I wash my produce.

@micahmiller5923 2 года назад

@@hannahkayee831 my only deviation on this is that I don't wash my leafy greens right away. I follow the same procedure with my salad spinner when I prepare my greens for consumption, and only on the day we plan to eat them. I drain them off after every spin, and I do at least 3 spin cycles with them. I also place a clean dry tea towel or paper towel on top when I spin to help absorb excess moisture.

@adeleetherton2665 2 года назад

We use all the celery leaves too... and the bottom of the celery, we put on a dish and stand that core up and it will regrow... pretty fast, even without planting!

@hannahkayee831 2 года назад

When you make a crumble, freeze the butter and use a cheese grater to shred it before adding it to a crumble or biscuit dough. It works beautifully with must less effort.

@traciedye9633 2 года назад

My husband is a professional chef/ baker at our local university. He said to proof your muffins put a pan of water in the oven, cook for about 10 mins and then remove the water pan and finish baking the muffins.

@corinehelton9265 2 года назад

I also freeze the celery ends that are normally tossed in the trash. They are great for making stock or bone broth. I keep a bag in the freezer for any veggie ends, peels, etc .for this purpose.

@TheCotzi 2 года назад

I'm in Atlanta and we do cornbread with and without sugar... it depends on what the cornbread is going with... if we're having it with green or black eyed peas or something that we're going to use the bread to soop up the juice with it needs to be a more savory bread and if we're frying chicken or pork chops or something dry and the cornbreads a side by itself then we make it sweet

I have a hack for you! wrap the celery in aluminum foil and in the fridge (veg drawer) it will stay good for weeks, You might want to take the leaves off, they might go mouldy, but mine stay fine for a month or longer.

I never put sugar in my cornbread. I use a half flour half cornmeal mix to make it. As for celery, sometimes I use the bottom and leaves for stock, and sometimes I plant them in a flower pot and let them grow.

@vvkelly97 2 года назад

Cornbread is for beans and chilli and greens. The only cornbread that should have sugar in it is Jiffy, and Jiffy is to be ate by itself with butter.

@LazyOverachiever 2 года назад

Hey Christine! Just wanted to lend a tip on those blueberry muffins which is to lightly toss your blueberries in flour before adding it to your mixture so the blueberries don't sink. It helps! Thanks for the video!

@asryne5352 2 года назад

I also put chopped celery in the freezer and it is also one of my favorite freezer hacks. I also do the same thing with green onions and it works absolutely fine but it seems like it wouldn't. I feel sneaky every time I do it, and then I can pull them out to sprinkle on top of things for just a minute in the oven, like cheese fries or nachos. It also works well for soups, or to throw into ramen, and it looks so fancy, like I have my life together or something. Although someone on reddit once yelled at me in a meal prep community about how using frozen celery and carrots is an abomination that they wouldn't serve to their dog or worst enemy, so I guess there's that. ;)

@rachelday9585 2 года назад

I do the same thing with onions as you did with celery. I sometimes only need about half an onion for something so I chop the entire thing and freeze the other half. I usually use them in soups, stews, pot roast, just makes it a little faster.

I just bought a cherry pitter and it has totally changed the game! I live where there is a plethora of cherries every summer, and I used to pit the cherries by hand. Took forever! Highly recommend spending $13 for a cherry pitter if you’re gonna freeze them or make a pie 👍🏼

@gretaz1502 2 года назад

Pitting cherries without a pitter? Use an empty wine bottle and a chopstick. Position the cherry over the opening and press down with the blunt end of the chopstick . The pit will fall in the bottle.

@katycalvert6852 2 года назад

I am personally very, very anti sugar in cornbread and I grew up just south of Atlanta and am still in the south. Some people make it a little sweet though for certain things, but it’s never been for me. I always hated all of the prepackaged corn muffin mixes because they were sweet! According to my grandmothers, all cornbread needs to be is self-rising cornmeal, salted butter, and buttermilk.

I love your prep videos! ❤️ A super helpful hint that I found is that if you put your berries into a regular old Mason jar they will last twice as long. Just make sure that they are dry and that the lid is a regular 2 part thingamajig!😁 I don’t know why but if you use a plastic lid or a one piece lid it doesn’t work.🤷‍♀️ Also those celery leaves are awesome in dishes I just dice them up like I would any herbs.

@juanitaglenn9042 2 года назад

I do it with almost everything! Get scratch n dent peppers, onions, cabbage, carrots, celery, radishes, spinach, beets, turnip/rutabaga. Peel and cut away anything you wouldn't eat. Chop the veggies you would like chopped. Grate the others. I also do fresh zucchini, radishes, and whatever I feel like, grated. I 'mold' the grated stuff into a small bowl or sour cream container in one or two cup measurements and plunk it onto a pan prepared with the plastic from the cereal boxes, (to keep from sticking) that'll go in the freezer. Later i transfer to freezer Tupperware or freezer bags, labeled and dated. I throw these veggiesicles into soups, casseroles, muffins, stirfries. I also freeze a lot of fruit if I'm not using it fast enough, including melons and segmented oranges, for smoothies.

@jessicabruno1316 2 года назад

Frozen celery is genius. I often just go ahead and cook some celery and onions together (using up all my "extra" celery, if I bought it for a specific recipe) and then freeze that in sour cream containers. Ready for soup bases or to zhuzh up some Stovetop Stuffing, my one true love. :)
