Would you cover the correct way to "wash" fruits and veggies? Should I bother with vinegar, salt, and/or vegetable/fruit sprays?
@violetg7315
@violetg7315 Год назад
I believe wash the fruits under running water and soft brush for a few minutes should be good.

Do a little googling on using baking soda -- what it removes is disgusting when you think it could've been going in your mouth. I add a 1/4 cup to a large bowl of room temp water, throw in the fruit or veg and let sit a few minutes, then rinse. Easy, peasy and cheap!
@Jen7867

I'd love to see an actual experiment on this, too!! 👍 Depending on the item, I either rinse it throughly with water (leafy greens, rice, lentils) or wash it with soap, water, and a nylon bristle brush.

I know from experience that a little white vinegar in the water has really prolonged the freshness if strawberries for me. It eliminates mold spores that cause them to spoil faster. That's the only fruit I have tried this with.
@porcorosso4330
@porcorosso4330 Год назад
I have seen a video on this topic by some other channel. basically, just adding anything is better than plain water. then the question becomes what is the main thing you want to remove. at the end of the day, I just concluded I will use salt water since it is easy for me to get salt. that said, like some others have mentioned vinegar might be good for keeping things fresh and browning.

I usually agree with Lisa but not about the avacado tool. I really love mine. Maybe it's because I'm not confident with a chef's knife. But with my Oxo tool, I can slice up that avacado in like 2 seconds and I don't worry about cutting myself.

And for the next installment, the cherry pitter. If you need to clean alot of cherries 🍒, that is the way to go. I have one that you hit the spring-loaded plunger, it pushes the pit into a cup and the fruit into a bowl. So much better and faster than a hair pin.

Strawberry hulling: there is another tool it’s been around for longer than I’ve been alive. My grandmother had one, my mom, and me. It’s like a fat pair of tweezers and you just push it down on either side of the leaves/ stem, pinch and pull. One of my favorite tools for hulling is a plain old plastic drinking straw. Push the straw up thru the bottom of the strawberry and out comes pith.

For the avocadoes, after you slice it in half, you can cut it up before using a spoon to remove it from the peel. It makes it so much easier, and you get perfect slices too. You can also cubed it like that very easily.

Never heard of the "Poke the avocado seed" bit to get it out.

TBH, I preferred the sandwich spreader over a knife for Avocados. Less chance of cutting yourself.

I have been hulling tons of strawberries this season. I found using a table spoon gets the job done quickly and much more effectively than a paring knife. Even better… use a grapefruit spoon. My favorite tool for a pineapple is a boning knife- thin and flexible and will cut right along the edge of the eyes with little waste. Love both Apple tools- I may need to upgrade this fall!

When I was a kid we had strawberry hullers like a pair of large flattened metal tweezers, you pressed in on two sides of the hull, squeezed the huller together and twisted out the hull. When you allowed the huller to open, the hull would then fall into your garbage pile. There are a couple still around on that general idea, but you really can't beat those old hullers when you've been doing u-pick and you have three flats of beautiful soft ripe strawberries to prepare for freezing.

On another note, we've been considering the apple corer/section for years and are now convinced to get one... Thanks for the great video.

Disagree on the Oxo avocado tool! It takes a little practice, but we use a lot of avocados so we got good at it fairly quickly. We find it much easier and less wasteful - I can go through half a dozen avocados in minutes. Key is not to be tentative - hold the avocado half in the palm of your hand so you can get in there and scoop down to the peel. I even take mine when traveling if I anticipate making using avocados. Love this thing!

Pinch the avocado seed using your thumb and index finger by going around the top of the knife. It will slide off the blade safely. Don't drag the knife with the avocado seeds or use something else to get it off - like your finger across the blade here! What if your thumb slips below the blade and you slice yourself. (not my trick - something I saw in an old Alton Brown video. I can't believe that's not what is taught everywhere. There is no better way)

Those avocado tools are strictly for haas avocados. In the Caribbean we have so many types of avocado in so different shapes and sizes that a one size fits all tool, like that oxo one, would not work for most avocados. Plus, many of our varieties have thin, easy to peel, green skin and free stone pits that are easy to remove too. They also have a variety of textured flesh for different uses, not just for guac. We eat a slice with our food in PR, or we use it as a butter substitute on our fresh baked bread, depending on the variety of avocado.

The problem with most of these is that they're not worth having unless you use a LOT of the foods they're designed for. Most of them are just a bit too large or a bit too unusually shaped to fit nicely in a drawer or cabinet. The tomato corer and strawberry huller are compact enough to just be kept along with measuring spoons and whatnot, but for the infrequent need I'd have for the rest, it's easier to just get a knife and board.

@@Nocturne22, it's hard to illustrate in this medium, but when I say "from the back", I mean the back of the blade. you don't grab the sharp bit at all. just two fingers holding the blade by the spine, next to the pit but putting most of the pressure on the blade itself...pit slips right off. if you get the pit at the heel of the blade (close to the handle), you can do it right in your blade hand too

Our producer, who's over six feet tall, and pretty strong, saw it as a reasonable spot. Works for him!! For me, that's too high. That's a great example of why we always have people of different heights and hand sizes and handedness and skill levels test products during our reviews, to be sure they suit a wide variety of people.

@@lisamcmanus6656 well, he's still nuts for putting it up there. 😁 My wife and I love watching your videos. Me being familiar, and her an actual chef for over 20 years, can relate to what you have in your content....And we still learn. Thank you.

HoLD StiLL!! I can't see the cool little gadget at all. I feel like I'm watching an intense tennis match, or like I'm a cat trying to catch a laser. Most Gadget people are guilty of this, usually only while demonstrating the gadgets that i am interested in. That said, 2 enthusiastic thumbs UP! to every coring tool. When and IF I can remember that i have one AND find it in a reasonable time, they make fruit like tomatoes, strawberries, pineapples, mangos, cherries, melons, fuh-uun! Uh&_hmm!

Who cores a tomato? I eat the whole thing.

I suppose with the pineapple corer it's a matter of how much waste are you OK with. To leave the eyes, you have to leave all the flesh between them, so you're basically leaving 1/4"-1/2" of pineapple flesh attached to the skin. And since pineapple aren't uniform in diameter, wouldn't this be made for an average (or smaller) pineapple, and so waste even more flesh with ones that have larger diameter?

I love the pineapple corer but wish they made a blade spacing for thicker slices for chunking pineapple. The strawberry huller is a waste of money. That super cheap tomato corer works just as well for strawberries. Save those apple peels. You can use a small portion of them in making apple butter or apple sauce. You can also use them to make homemade apple cider vinegar.

The pineapple waste can be used to make pineapple vinegar.

I have no issues if you call a tomato a fruit or a vegetable but I would not argue with a botanist scientist

Wondering if ATK tested the OXO strawberry tool. It’s a different design than the one shown. Can someone who used/owns the OXO please share your opinion.

I just bought one and it arrived yesterday! It works like tweezers and is fast. Not life changing, but it does leave a nice clean triangular shape to of the strawberry.

I prep my apples by cutting them in half, then using my melon baller to remove the core/seeds from each half. I’m want the strawberry huller. I don’t use my Oxo apple cutter. You have to have the right size apple to use it, too big and it doesn’t work.

✔️Apples have gotten bigger. Cherries have gotten bigger too. My old timey cherry pitter is too small for today’s super sized cherry pits.

peppers are fruits too, but no one gets pedantic about that. people complaining that tomatoes are fruits not vegetables is basically the same as complaining that pumpkins are fruits not orange: they can be more than one thing in more than one category. 🙄
