Thorough washing of fruits and vegetables is very important. And it must be done in the right way.
By washing fruits and vegetables properly, you ensure that you will avoid any infection or the presence of pathogenic microorganisms on them.
Here are three basic tips for proper washing:
Pay attention to fruits and vegetables that do not have a smooth surface (lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, etc.). You have to insist a lot in many places and put a little vinegar in the wash.
The greens need special attention. First you have to wash them with plenty of water, then place them in a basin of water and vinegar and then rinse them again with running water.
The plastic utensils you use to wash your fruits and vegetables should be very well washed, especially if you have washed other vegetables before.
