Ingredients

The ingredients are:

  • 1 tablespoons lemon juice (fresh)
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1 cup water
  • FOR SOAKING

  • 1/4 cup vinegar (white)
  • 2 tablespoons salt ( table salt)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • FOR THE SPRAY

  • Step 1: Combine all ingredients in a spray bottle (careful as this will foam up) shake gently; spray on veggies or fruit, then allow to site for 5 minutes; rinse with cold water.

  • FOR THE SOAK

  • Step 2: Fill your sink, basin, or a large bowl/container with a small amount of hot water, add salt, stir to dissolve salt completely, then add in cold water and the vinegar. Swish with hands to combine. Place your fruits and/or veggies in the solution, then allow to sit for 30 minutes, although I have left it in much longer the solution will not effect the flavor; rinse under cold water.

We hope you enjoy this recipe!
