The Most Effective Way to Wash Vegetables
Step-by-Step:
- Wash hands first
- Separate leaves or layers
- Rinse under running water
- Use a clean brush for roots
- Dry with a clean towel
⚠️ Soap or detergent is not recommended for vegetables.
Does Vinegar or Salt Water Help?
Soaking in vinegar or salt water may reduce surface contaminants, but:
- It does not replace proper washing
- It does not eliminate all microorganisms
Running water and physical friction remain the most effective.
