Best tip ever for parsley and cilantro…from an Italian Grandmother who approached me at the grocery store years ago. Trim the bottoms, place in a glass of water, put the plastic produce bag over it, twisting and tucking the bag into the top of the glass. It should look almost like a balloon on top, and place in the refrigerator. It creates a perfect microclimate and the greens will stay crisp and fresh for 3-4 weeks. I do it all of the time and am still so thankful for her advice.
This guy seems way too nice and energetic😂😂😂
My life has definitely changed:)
If the flax seeds and chia seed are sprouted do you have to grind them up?
Thank you 😊
The peanut butter tip is new to me. Thank you! Mixing grains is something I love to do also!
Great video! 👍🏻👌🏼✌🏼
Our grocery doesn't have kala namak but other brands of black salt. Are they just as good?
The best thing about natural plant butters is they separate. I use that oil for something else, like for cooking peas(helps with defoaming) or making soap. I love it when It's so firmed up I can add water to loosen it up.
Another tip for avocados, or many other fruits that aren't quite ripe yet. Put them on the counter right next to or even touching ripe bananas and they will ripen really quickly. A tip in the opposite direction would be don't put fruit next to bananas if you want them to last longer.
Fantastic ideas!
Once your avocado is cut, store the rest in a container or bag with onions and it’ll keep them from browing
These ARE crazy, groundbreaking descoveries.
Hello from Ontario! Just found your channel & loved this video. New subscriber : )
🤮
GOLD! Thank you for the tips especially the peanut butter one! The botox is also looking more natural 💛👌🏽
For peanut butter I just use my immersion blender and stick it in fridge.
How did you come by Kaka Namak? 😍 Just curious. Seeing this was,such a pleasant surprise!! Kala Namak is a common staple in Indian households. The FLAVOR of this salt is beyond-the-World amazing. Looks like Himalayan Pink Salt but tastes zillion times better and has low sodium levels. Some also call it 'Lava salt' here.
I would not eat may contain, heck no, I dont want to eat anything by chance. There are other,plently stuff that are free from animal products.
You're so sexy, you should be on netflix mate.
Frozen veggies & fruits are the best! I'd heard about the flash-frozen thing before, but didn't trust it. Then I worked in Trader Joe's, and learned so very much! Now I go so far as to only buy things fresh that can't be frozen very well such as cucumbers and lettuce. Everything else is frozen, which saves me a fortune, is easy to store, and available year round.
As for the grains, it's easy to mix up grains that cook for different times. For example, if one needs 10 minutes and another needs 25, start the 25 minute one, and then when 12-15 minutes are left, add the 10 minute one. The time difference is because the temperature will go down so you need some time for the temperature to come back up. The grains that have already started have stored some heat and will continue cooking.
I just learned so much!
Wow this is so helpfull, thank youuuu💓
Did the taco meat and it was good. A new favorite.
Great tips thank you. Once the linseeds and chia seeds have been ground, do they need to be refrigerated?
Can people finally stop with that "it changed my life" bullshit?! literally for every shitty amazon supplement and every shitty single diet, there's some middle aged mum claiming it changed or saved her life. i absolutely cannot hear it anymore.
Nice job. I take a paper towel or Norwex type microfiber cloth and put it in those big plastic tubs of spinach and lettuce blends. It absorbs the moisture so the greens last a lot longer. Also turn the container upside down so the cloth is at the bottom.

You don't need to peel the bananas to freeze them…they peel easily as they thaw…
I do all of this…so I feel good that I figured it out….
because I hate to waste food…
But THIS was great for newbies❤️
Never refrigerate avocado until they are ripe

I’m dying.
If you want to check an avocado for ripeness, look for those that have the little bit of stem still attached and pull on it. If it comes off easily, it's ready to eat. I learned this when I was about 8 from the fruit vendor in Argentina.
Cover with plastic bags while in water! Increase fridge life by weeks!
Wow these tops are awesome. 30 years old and never thought to put my greens in water 🥴

You're awesome. I learned so much. Thanks!
Dude!
You eat crap stuff for a vegan
Don’t eat PEANUTS FULL STOP
I think all the people who are trying to become Vegan like me, would really appreciate your video. That's great content. Thanks. 🙏🙏
Technically flaxseeds and chia seeds should be ground with a mortar or coffee grinder, as the blender's blades would ruin the flavor and would oxidize the minerals (including omega3)
If you mix your nut/seed butter and store in fridge it doesn't separate again.
The print your own money comment 👌🏽😂
I was blown away with just Tip #1… I so needed this video. Thank you so much for sharing all these great tips 🙏🏾
Love the peanut butter trick!
For the Peanut butter I like to put it out on a bowl and mix with spatula , than I put it back in the jar ☺️
Very helpful information…I had no idea how to preserve those greens.
I saw a tiktok the other day where a lady showed you can put a cut avocado in water then keep it in the fridge and it will stay fresh and green for longer.
For the bananas if you put a towel around them in the fridge the will get dark slower!
