The Simple Trick to Keep Apple Slices Fresh for a Longer Time
|
Keeping apples from turning brown can be a challenge, but there's a surprisingly simple solution that might not be what you expect. When apples are sliced, they start to brown due to a reaction with oxygen. This doesn't affect the taste, but it can be unappealing. Fortunately, there are easy ways to keep your apple slices looking fresh.
Foolproof Solution
One of the best methods is using a saltwater bath. This technique is quick, requires minimal cleanup, and keeps your apples bright. To do this, mix half a teaspoon of kosher salt with a cup of room temperature water. Soak your apple slices in this solution for about 10 minutes. After soaking, rinse the slices under cold water to remove any saltiness. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge, and they'll stay fresh for up to three days.
If you're not using the saltwater method, consider storing apple slices in the fridge to limit oxygen exposure. Cutting larger slices can also help reduce browning. For short-term freshness, keep slices in cold water while preparing other ingredients.
These simple tips can help you enjoy fresh-looking apples in your pies, snacks, or lunchboxes without the worry of browning. |
