Saigon has ended its first week of social distancing under Directive 16. Staying at home 24/7, unable to order food outside, so whether you are a celebrity or not, you have to roll up your sleeves and get into the kitchen!
Not long ago, “bubble princess” Bao Thy wondered if vegetables could be stored in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator. As long as it is possible, the confident sisterhood promptly jumped in to share tips, including Lan Khue!
This is probably also the concern of many sisters, not just the “bubble princess” herself
The capable girl Lan Khue gave Bao Thy detailed advice: “Chop the onions, put them in a box, and freeze them. You can also freeze ginger, sis. When you squeeze it, it releases ginger juice.”
For other types of vegetables, you can blanch them, cut them into small pieces, and freeze them. Wash raw vegetables and let them drain before putting them in a box lined with paper, to keep them fresh for one week. Wrap oranges and apples and store them in the refrigerator for over a week. Wash strawberries, put them in a Tupperware box lined with paper. Soft fruits like bananas and avocados can also be cut and frozen, sis.”

In addition, the online community also shared some interesting tips to answer Bao Thy’s question about storing vegetables using the freezer compartment of the refrigerator.
Thuận Thiên, who lives abroad, shared that vegetables like pea pods, water spinach, bitter melon, can be stored in the freezer for several years.
Just blanch the vegetables, let them drain, and put them in a sealed bag to store in the freezer, they can be stored for several years!
Furthermore, some viewers suggested that Bao Thy should invest in a vacuum sealer. Clean and cut the vegetables into small pieces, put them in a bag, and vacuum seal them, then you don’t need a refrigerator to store them for 1 week.
In summary, to store vegetables during this period of social distancing, sisters should note the following:
– Vegetables: Wash the vegetables, put them in a sealed box/bag. Wrap the vegetables with a layer of paper between each layer, this way, the vegetables will stay fresh longer.
The layer of paper will help keep the vegetables fresh when stored in the refrigerator
– Fruits: For low-water fruits like bananas/avocados/apples/strawberries, you can cut them into small pieces, put them in a sealed box/bag and store them in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator. For high-water fruits like watermelons/pears, it is better to store them in the refrigerator.
– Herbs/spices: For herbs like onions, cilantro, mint, you should cut off the roots, wash them, let them drain, then chop them into small pieces and store each type of herb in a separate bag, in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator. For spices like garlic, chili, ginger, you should peel them and slice them, put them in a bag and store them in the freezer.
With this information and suggestions, we hope you will have more tips for storing vegetables and have a joyful time at home!
