BLANCHING GREENS 🥬 🥬What is blanching? Blanching is the process of cooking veggies, fruits or nuts briefly in hot water, followed by immersing them in an ice bath to quickly stop the cooking process (also known as "shocking"). 🥬Why would I blanch my greens? Blanching collard greens makes them more pliable and less prone to breakage, which is perfect for using them in wraps. Blanching also releases a layer of gas that allows the pigment to reach the surface, which makes them a brighter color.

Blanching is a food preparation technique in which food is briefly immersed in hot liquid, like boiling water or oil, often but not always as a prelude to cooking it further. Fruits, vegetables, and nuts are the foods that are most frequently blanched, each for different reasons. Sometimes it might be to soften it, or to loosen the skin to make peeling it easier, or simply to brighten the color of it. . . . #daddytips #tips #instagood #instafood #Ajaychopra | Ajay Chopra
