Vegetable and Fruit Tips:

* Prevent discoloration of green leafy vegetables: Add a pinch of

common salt and sugar to the cooking vegetable so as to avoid

discoloration of green leafy vegetables.

* Onion peeling without crying: Peel onions under water to avoid

"crying". Another option is to refrigerate onions before cutting.

* Keep green leafy vegetables fresh for longer time: Wrap green leafy

vegetables in a newspaper before putting in the vegetable bag or

tray. This will keep them fresh much longer.

* Keep celery fresh for a longer time: Celery wrapped in aluminum

foil before refrigerating will remain fresh for weeks.

* Stop potatoes from rotting: Potatoes rot quickly if stored near

onions. To prevent potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag

with the potatoes.

* Keep chillies fresh for a longer time: While storing green chilies,

remove the stems.
