    perfect season for this great tip, Chef Ange!
    My sister believes Driscoll's fruit is pre-rinsed - and there may be some rinsing that goes on as part of the packaging process, but you've just shown us it's not adequate on it's own. Can't wait to send her this video with a big, brotherly #ToldYaSo!

    • @ChefAnge
      @ChefAnge  Před rokem +2

      They might rinse them a little but I wouldn’t say they are clean! Once you see the dirty water, you’ll never want to eat fruit without running it through a thorough wash like this.

    Organic fruit lasts longer, is brighter, more flavorful. Yes i still rinse it, to remove dirt, etc from the packing and shipping process, but its so much tastier . I also dry it flat on paper towels. Putting it in fridge with any moisture will cause pre rotting. Love natures candy!💚

    For clarification since I’m a bit confused.
    1) How long do you let the fruit sit in the colander? Is the fruit totally dry?
    2) Do you change the paper towels a few days later or are the original pieces good until the fruit is consumed?
    Thank you!😊

    • @ChefAnge
      @ChefAnge  Před 4 měsíci

      10-15 min. Not much longer than that. It’s mostly dry once it drains. That’s what the paper towel is for. Usually don’t need to change it if the fruit was decently dried before going in.

    Mixing vinegar and baking soda into a solution doesn’t do anything. You’re actually removing the cleaning properties of both the baking soda and vinegar

      @k.t.watkins5706 Před 2 měsíci +13

      @@ChefAnge 😁try using either baking soda or vinegar next time and I suspect it will work even better. For the readers, mixing the two together neutralizes the properties of both, which is why you see it bubble. The chemical reaction leaves you with carbon dioxide and ...water. so you're cleaning with water effectively.

      The whole point is baking soda is alkaline and vinegar is acidic I have no clue why someone would add them together. Do them separately. The high alkaline is what breaks down and rinses away pesticides…

    This is bad chemistry. Acid and a base. Each renders the other… useless as a cleaning solvent. Looks good but thoroughly useless method and really bad advice if you in fact intend to clean the food you consume.
