Equipment

  • 1 Large Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Cups Filtered Water
  • 2 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 Pound Fresh Fruit

Instructions
 

  • Start by adding about 4 cups of filtered water into a large bowl with 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. Stir together with a spoon.
  • Then add the fresh fruit, stir around, and let soak for about 10 minutes.
  • Pour the vinegar water out of the bowl and give the fruit a quick rinse with fresh water. For best results, use a strainer.

Notes

Expert Tips

  • Use cool water when soaking the produce to keep it fresh and crisp.
  • Double the recipe if you're cleaning larger fruit like apples or larger amounts of fruit.
  • Do not mix berries in one bowl unless you are planning to store them together. Soak in separate bowls or in shifts.
  • If you're planning to use the same bowl to clean more than one container of fruit, make sure you rinse the bowl out before adding in fresh water.
