Today I was looking at the bananas in the freezer and remembered my mom putting a bunch straight in the freezer no peeling it at all. That got me to thinking about things my mom and grandparents did. So, I thought I would share some of those tips. I am sure I have shared tips with you before so there might be a repeat or two!
Bananas- they can be put in the fridge unpeeled, but I find it easier to peel them and store in a Ziploc baggie. We use them for everything from smoothies to bread. Also, if you use the stem as a handle and peel from the bottom, you will get less strings.
Sugars- if you have brown sugar and it is clumping or hardening, throw in a marshmallow! Throw a saltine cracker in with your white sugar and it helps with clumping and moisture.
Cookies- to keep your cookies soft store them in a sealed container with a piece of bread.
Bread/muffins-if you make homemade bread and muffins, store them in the fridge they will last longer and not mold as quickly.
Vegetables- after you have washed and drained your vegetable, if you are cutting it into serving pieces store it in a sealed container or Ziploc baggie with paper towels. Don't forget to change the paper towels if they are wet.
Lemons- squeeze lemons with tongs to get as much of the juice out as you can.
I hope some of those help! Sorry I am late today, our internet is spotty as the tower was hit by lightening and they are still trying to fix it. I'm going to truly go insane if I don't get internet soon!
