It really takes very little.<\/strong>keep onions fresh-Imilanesi.nanopress.it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do onions not last long in your home and sometimes you have to throw them away because they are moldy? Or have they become dry and inedible and you can&#8217;t use them? Well, there are many ways to keep them fresh for a long time, here they are!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep onions fresh for a long time in the black bag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have some onions in the fridge or in the basket and you want&nbsp;<strong>to preserve them so that you can use them for a long<\/strong>&nbsp;time, here&#8217;s what you need to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When you buy onions, check that the peel is intact and not rotten;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove any outer peels that seem dirty;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place the onions in a black bag;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take 2 tablespoons of salt and place them in a paper towel;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cut 4 or 5 slices of ginger and place them on top of the salt;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make a square with the napkin and roll it up;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Attach two elastic bands to the ends.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At this point, put the napkin as you rolled it inside the black bag, let the air out of the bag and tie a knot. Once you have carefully tied the bag, store it in a dry place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The&nbsp;<strong>spicy flavor of ginger<\/strong>&nbsp;has the power to kill bacteria and thus prevents bacterial attack in onions. Salt is a strong absorbent ingredient and thus absorbs moisture that can cause onions to mold. The&nbsp;<strong>black bag blocks the entry of light<\/strong>&nbsp;and thus prevents onions from growing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alternative method: the transparent bag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another way to keep them fresh for a long time is&nbsp;<strong>to keep them in a transparent bag<\/strong>&nbsp;, here&#8217;s how to do it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Take them and put them in a transparent bag;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put two cigarettes in the bag;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close the bag and store in the refrigerator below 5 degrees.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Onions \u2013 iMilanesi.Nanopress.it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although it may seem strange,&nbsp;<strong>nicotine acts as an absorbent<\/strong>&nbsp;and keeps the onions dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fresh onions with baking soda and tea leaves<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still using the&nbsp;<strong>transparent bag<\/strong>&nbsp;, here is another method to preserve fresh onions for a long time:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Put them in a transparent bag;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take a paper towel and sprinkle some baking soda on it;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add loose leaf tea to the baking soda;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close the bag and store it in a ventilated but dry place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Baking soda<\/strong>&nbsp;is&nbsp;a great&nbsp;<strong>absorbent<\/strong>&nbsp;and prevents them from absorbing excess water. Tea leaves also absorb water and odors, keeping onions dry and odor-free. They also contain polyphenols that prevent onions from sprouting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another foolproof method to keep onions fresh for a long time is to use&nbsp;<strong>rice<\/strong>&nbsp;. Take a plate, pour some rice and put them in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cover with rice and you will see that due to&nbsp;<strong>the strong smell no bacteria will be produced<\/strong>&nbsp;. Since the rice is practically dry, they remain dry and fresh for a very long time. When you take them, they will still be firm and whole, and&nbsp;<strong>also full of flavor<\/strong>&nbsp;!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Store onions in jars<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/imilanesi.nanopress.it\/col-metodo-del-barattolo-avrai-un-profumo-irresistibile-in-casa-ti-invidieranno\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The jar method<\/a>&nbsp;is also&nbsp;foolproof for keeping them fresh for a very long time. Here&#8217;s what you have to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Take a glass jar with a lid;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place the onions inside, taking care not to leave space between them;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close the jar and store it in a dry place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>They will be tightly packed together<\/strong>&nbsp;and will remain intact and perfect for a long time. Again, you need to put them in a dry place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you can see, you can choose your favorite foolproof method to preserve them and always enjoy them as when you bought them, nice and fresh!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The method to keep onions fresh exists, you just need to discover it and put it into practice.
