Soak It All Up

Here's a tip I picked up from a friend who owns an organic vegetarian food outlet. Soak vegetables in vinegar for about 15min to remove the insecticides and pesticides used. Although I don't really know if it works, I just do it with blind faith, believing in providing my family with healthier food.

If you can afford it, the ideal is to use organic apple cider vinegar. I go for a cheaper alternative with the chinese white rice vinegar. Add about 1tbsp of the vinegar to about 1.5 to 2litres of water.
