Water spinach is a popular green vegetable in Southeast Asia, especially in Indonesia. With its crunchy texture and fresh taste, water spinach is often used as a stir-fry or soup. The easy and fast processing of water spinach makes many people choose this vegetable as a daily menu.
Despite its many benefits and being loved by many people, kale wilts quickly if not stored properly. Even if placed in the refrigerator, kale still wilts quickly and becomes soft, making it less tasty when consumed.
To overcome wilted kale, some people usually choose to just throw it away. However, there are also those who process it again to make it fresher, for example by soaking the vegetables in ice water. This is considered to be able to restore the freshness of wilted kale.
But besides the method of soaking in ice water, there is another trick that you can practice, you know. This trick was shared by Instagram user @ummubalqishaura, it tends to be more practical and faster because wilted kale can be fresh again in 10-15 minutes. It can save cooking time, you know.
After further investigation, the Instagram user did not only soak it in ice water. He admitted to using another kitchen ingredient. As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @ummubalqishaura on Tuesday (8/20), the kitchen ingredient in question is lemon water.
