Radish is a very healthy vegetable, it is rich in many vitamins and useful substances. It is believed that it improves the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and metabolism. Therefore, it is recommended for diabetics and dieters. And for this you need to provide yourself with fresh radishes all year round. There are several ways to prepare vegetables for long-term storage, one of them is freezing.
Let's start preparing for the freezing of radishes. It is necessary to collect fresh vegetables, it is better to take young and tender radishes, small in size. Firstly, they contain more vitamins than mature vegetables, and secondly, they are more delicious. Remove the leaves and roots from the radishes, rinse well and dry on paper towels. Fruits with rot and spots are generally better not to freeze. Then we cut the radish into thin circles and put it in bags. It is better to take small bags with locks so that they can hold as many frozen vegetables as you can use at a time. A couple of radishes for a salad is enough. Radishes should not be put in the freezer right away, because the juice released from the radish slice will turn into ice, which will then melt and turn into water. In addition, many vitamins will be destroyed. Therefore, we put the chopped radish on a plate, send it to the freezer for 15 minutes and at a temperature of about minus 40 degrees. Then we take out the radish, put it in bags and put it in the freezer for permanent storage. But even with this method of storage, it is better not to store radishes for more than three months. Then it becomes less tasty, crispy, and there are few vitamins left. In the same way, you can save fresh greens for the winter.
Bon appetit!
