If you change the water after a few days, I would bet it would keep more than 5 days. Celery actually lasts much longer when wrapped in foil. I learned that from a farmer at the market... tried it, and it works! I like to make cucumber lemonaide.... i's the bomb.
I take a celerystock, I slice a very thin are off the bottom where the roots grew……I put an inch of water in a jar, set the stalk in it….put it in the fridge and if you keep the water level constant…. It will last and be fresh for a month
I'll try it for carrots and cucumbers, looks easier than vacuum packing. For onions and potatoes I don't see the point unless you need to store leftovers, otherwise it's easier to keep them whole (and unpeeled) in a cloth/linen bag in the pantry.
Love this! I like to do prep that makes extra to use later in the week. Now maybe they will last a little longer. I use water from drained off cooked veggies or canned goods as a topical fertilizer. Also leftover coffee. I would drink the carrot or celery water but use the onion or potato water in this way.
I wish I could keep it longer than 5 days, but we eat a lot of vegetables and I have a lot of mason jars - so I think doing this with carrots and celery would be very helpful. I know that it works for potatoes because I actually discovered it myself one day when I cut a potato too soon and wanted to save it. In water, it lasts!
I had heard of most of these storing in jars in the fridge but had not heard potatoes, ginger and onions. I will definitely do this from now on. Thank you!!👍 So much easier for prep.
He's right 👍🏾 the potatoes work. I learned accidentally. I was going to can some potatoes and got tired and stuck them in the fridge 😂 that went on days & even a couple of weeks. They were still white when I took them out and fresh. I did have a lot of starch in bottom of jar. Rinsed, boiled and my husband got mashed potatoes 🎉
I'm confused. I read that u can keep chopped onion fresh for 5 + days in an airtight container. Someone asked, what about a jar & yes, it was airtight & better than plastic (for odor). So how come by adding water to the jar, suddenly u can't eat them unless u cook them? I only like raw onions, so I'm looking for a way to keep them that's handy & and they'll stay fresh.
I also find that putting veggies like this in snack size zip lock bags gives you a perfect serving size for cooking. I just put them on the door of my freezer for easy access.
Tnqqq very much jag Singh sir for giving us such a great information about the veggies that we can keep fresh in the refrigerator and once again happy all the puja festival of this year 2022 celebrated in our country India to you and your family from me sir 👋😀👍👍👍👌👌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🌹🌹💐💐
Thank you for this tutorial. I was actually looking for ways to store cucumbers and watched 10 videos before this one. I've tried placing diced potatoes in water which kept extremely well for two weeks without the potatoes coloring and no slimmy water. I only tried it once and had not considered cucumbers. I'm getting back into the kitchen these days! video is so helpful, thanks for sharing ❤
Hi i got a capiscum/ pepper i never cut it up , because I only needed a half so i only cut it in half so shall i cut it up in slices / cubes and store or should i keep as is an only cut up as required
Thanks for this. Having worked in food prep, we often store many of the fresh veg this way, too! Just thought to share in case one ever needed to just peel a lot of ginger quickly, i’ve found the inside edge of a spoon to be quite fast and safe.
It makes no sense why you cannot eat the raw onion stored in the jar of water, but you can eat the cucumber and the carrots. It seems the risk of bacterial contamination would be the same for all the vegetables you showed.
My vegetables..th ones in urr presentation..last on my fridge longer than th 5 days u said th veg's in jars with water will last. Then th extra work..if they lasted a long time this would b helpful...com on man!
They won't last long if you cut them, they only last long as whole. If you use half of potatoes and onion, the rest doesn't last long either. This is for cutting and making them ahead of time so they are ready to use whenever you need them.

Set it on the window and it will grow too
This is good to know, now I won't waste so much.
Water is mostly polluted with Florida and heavy metals? If you use this method use water without Florida and heavy metals.keep it 100
I prefer to store my onions in vinegar. Also, peel your ginger with a spoon!
Great tip!
Does using the vinegar make the onions last longer?
What other vegetables can you store like this?
Thanks for the video. I've had problems keeping celery and I hate to throw away food

Yes, onions and potatoes if you already cut them and used half or if you need to cut them ahead of time for when you need to prepare for meal faster
Thank you, for sharing these great ideas.

You can always freeze them in air-tight containers or zip-lock bags if you want to keep them much longer.
Food saver bags, then freeze last month

Good question
Same question here
@@christinawilliams9687 isn't it funny that 9 times out of 10 the author never answers questions 🙄
What if you add a spoon of salt will that keep bacteria from growing
Great idea!
I also find that putting veggies like this in snack size zip lock bags gives you a perfect serving size for cooking. I just put them on the door of my freezer for easy access.
Seems like they would last longer than 5 days??? What if they still look and taste fine after 7-10 days etc.?
Never thought to store them that way. I will try it! Ty.
Pop them in white vinegar and pickle them and they will last even longer
Nice, will try!
Hmmm. I never peel my ginger. I’ll definitely try the ginger water. This kinda like “fermenting” without the salt. Pre fermenting.
Wonder why you peel/cut before washing? Is there no vitamin loss?
Do you use water from the faucet, filtered, what is the best? I'm just starting to do this prep work. Thanks!
Great video! Can you do this with peppers, too? I like to precut peppers for use in salads, etc, but they start to get mushy after 3 or 4 days.
You have to keep the peppers whole to make then last long.
@@DaisyCreekFarms OK. Thanks for your response! 🙂
I love raw potatoes!! These are great tips.
what
You bring the best things to our attention! Thank you so much for doing these videos.
Thanks so much ❣️😁. What about garlic, lemons and limes?
These can store well in the fridge when when peeled and cut
@@DaisyCreekFarms also stored in water?
How can cucumbers grown in Summer be stored until the Winter??
Your videos make me hungry lol
I am going to hoard mason jar and do this. Thank you.

Is there a reason you peel everything, or just personal preference?

Wow....never thought of this....I normally resist anything ginger, but this idea sounds fantastic...
So what your saying go on Amazon and get some Mason jars 😆
Aliexpress,much cheaper
Thanks for doing this. Gracias.
Such a good idea. Thx! 👍🏽 will these last longer if u refresh the water?
Or add salt?
Yes they will, but I haven't tested for how long they last. Need to do so
Do you have a video of keeping herbs fresh once harvest
Yes going to post it soon, best way is to keep them in some water in a glass or a cup on kitchen counter or next to a window
Change water weekly and veggies last longer, especially celery and carrots. Mine last a month!
I’ve been able to keep chopped onions in mason jars for upwards of 3 weeks without water.
My mom would always add salt to the water for cucumbers, carrots, and celery. It was a good trick to crisp up tired grocery store produce.
Nice tip, will try it!
Very interesting. Can we store any vegetable like this? Or are there any exceptions? Do they taste same when used in cooking?
Glad I found this video Im going raw vegan soon and needed to know how I can store my veggies ❤❤❤.
Hi i got a capiscum/ pepper i never cut it up , because I only needed a half so i only cut it in half so shall i cut it up in slices / cubes and store or should i keep as is an only cut up as required
Can you do this if you don’t peel everything?
Thank you Jag. Your videos are always inspiring and refreshing.
Does anyone else think Jag is extra sexy when he talks veggies😍😍
What if we just peel off the skin and half cut all those veggies. Does that work the same way ?
Thanks for this. Having worked in food prep, we often store many of the fresh veg this way, too!
Just thought to share in case one ever needed to just peel a lot of ginger quickly, i’ve found the inside edge of a spoon to be quite fast and safe.
Does anyone know if this would work for radishes?
Potatoes in fridge will turn into sugar !
That's a pretty neat idea! I kinda want some ginger water right now. 😅😅👍
Why not eat the onion raw though???
Ok thanks exactly whay im looking for
It makes no sense why you cannot eat the raw onion stored in the jar of water, but you can eat the cucumber and the carrots. It seems the risk of bacterial contamination would be the same for all the vegetables you showed.
I think onions are more porous.
Thank You so much for your help
Thank you I will be doing this!!
Ive got that same fridge lol have not ever filled it its so huge
Yesssss thank you, thank you!!!!
Could you clarify on the onions? Did you say to not eat the onions raw after stored in the water?
Yes, true, once you store them in water, do not eat them raw out of the water, cook them, only eat fresh onion raw.
You don't need to add water
Good video as always
I have jars! Can you store lettuce? Cabbage?
No lettuce must be stored wrapped in kitchen towel or paper towel in the fridge
❤
Why can’t you eat those onions raw???
Because of Bacterial Growth.
Great idea!
Thank you
Lovely
ABSOLUTELY DO NOT DO THIS
why? curious to know
Why not?

Wow. You are amazing. The videos are always so interesting. Thank you.
