The main gist of the complaints about greens is that they lose their freshness very quickly..
You don’t always want to dry or freeze them..
That’s why our magazine’s expert on culinary issues, chef Yulia Arkhipova, told us about the main secrets of properly storing greens.
What are they?
A jar
First of all, it’s worth noting that the greens are first washed, dried and trimmed a little. After that, take a jar of a suitable size, pour in water and send the greens.
Cover the top with a bag with holes. Change the water every 24 hours. This way, the greens stay fresh for up to 14 days.
You should leave such a ‘bouquet’ on the bottom shelf.
Container
If you have containers, you can safely use them to store greens. Put a layer of paper towel on the bottom, put the greens in and close.
This method also promises to keep the product fresh for up to 14 days.
A paper towel bag
The towel should be lightly sprayed with water from a spray bottle and the greens should be completely wrapped. In this form, the product will remain fresh for quite a long period of time.
