- Are you cleaning your vegetables properly? Some produce, like broccoli, are especially hard to clean as bugs and insect eggs can hide in crevices 🥦 Daddy Lau shows how to wash veggies thoroughly in our new course, the Canto Cooking Club.

The saline content must be much higher for any degydration of bacteria cells to occur. The bacteria must also be exposed to the salt for longer time. As for insects and insect eggs, they will be dissolved by enzymes and the acid in our stomaches and be what my mom says "extra protein".
This. Our stomachs is powerful lol also who believes the food they eat are even ever super clean? It doesn’t exist.
Plus the 100-200c of heat it will go under
You must be one of those people who doesn't clean their meats before cooking them 🤢🤮
.
Clean your veg's and your meats, you ain't got a single clue who touched it or where it's been before it gets to your plate.
.
Vinegar, salt and water.
Thank you… I knew this was too good to be true
Not to mention the veggies will be cooked at high temperatures that would kill any bacteria and insect eggs. Making even the incorrect reasoning of this method redundant.
But won't the bugs be killed anyway, when the food is cooked?
Yeah, this is to sell ppl on their bs paywalled stuff via fearmongering
Broccoli is sometimes eaten raw or undercooked if people like it crunchy
Vinegar and baking soda works
Very awesome.
I have worked in a microbiology lab. We actually use a NaCl broth to help grow certain bacteria.
As it seems this is sodium not chemical substance as Chloride of sodium (NaCl)
Hi Lau team: sorry, but this tip and its reasoning are misguided. The video uses a kernel of truth but unfortunately draws a pointless piece of advice from it.
(1) First and foremost: this video shows the use of about 17g of salt in a couple of litres of water, for 2-3 minutes. The processes that you describe for bacteria will not occur at that concentration and in such a short time. If you look at some of the literature, you will see that you need much higher concentrations of salt and longer contact time to kill a meaningful amount of bacteria.
(2) The video also does not acknowledge the existence of halophilic and halotolerant bacteria (which thrive in and tolerate saline environments respectively). That is, a saline solution actually *promotes* the growth of some pathogens - although, as with point 1, this will not occur in such a short time anyway.
(3) In any event, for cooked vegetables (like broccoli), food-borne bacteria will be killed by the cooking process. For cooked or uncooked vegetables, the bacteria (and critters) can be removed mechanically by washing them in fresh water - there is nothing meaningful to be gained by including salt in that process.
Great info, was feeling bad about all the veggies I had eaten this week without having it soaked with salt and water prior to cooking it. And honestly a bit frightened by the concept of insect eggs. Your lit based info helped calm me down a bit
@@sarahaustbo8818 you have a stomache.
Dw that will kill every living thing you put in it.
How long should the vegetables be washed? Should they soak or be rinsed?
Thank you ,Uncle Lau .. everyone is still learning. Really appreciate ur sincere heartfelt advice . I enjoy your channel.
There are so many folks that don't even bother to rinse.
Good intentions. Great guy with awesome recipes. This is just wasting salt though.
Broccoli is also slightly hydrophobic. So its basically pointless.
So how can we wash broccoli? Can we use vinegar?
wash off the free protein? no thanks i paid for those eggs and i’m going to eat them
nothing goes to waste
😆
Lol
Great tip. Thank you.
In the words of Jacques Pepin, if it can survive me cooking it, it deserves to get me sick lol
Thanks for helping
I was amazed by how throughly Asian rinse their food before using it...I think much of the food is rinsed during the processing.
Now, after seeing Asians rinse so much i have started rinsing my vegetables. The water does have fine sand in the bowl.😮
Thank you I love to learn when it comes to cooking and dealing with food! Tell your dad thank you you have a great day!!!🙏🙏❤️👍. JV
I do baking soda and salt for 20 min soak . love this
It depends with the type of vegetables and where you get them from.
What is the approximate salt/water ratio?
use vinegar, salt doesn't do anything to bacteria!
OOOOORRRRR you can just cook the broccoli. Heat does all that without wasting another bowl of water and salt 😂
lots of people eat undercooked or raw broccoli for the crunch. not rocket science.
@@SynestriaVImy comment was aimed towards the „killing effect“.
Most bacteria are fine with a salt concentration of 1% or even higher, it’s even necessary for growth… balancing for some seconds or minutes will kill whatever is on the surface, but soaking the broccoli in a little saltwater is just doing nothing tbh.
You will need a ton of salt, and won't we have to leave the broccoli in the salt water for longer.
When we cook that stuff gets killed anyway.
Wait you can't wash work baking soda????
Are frozen veggies pretreated like this?
Can insect eggs live through a steam?
Boiling does the same?
But you don't always want boiled broccoli.
@@mariannekiss2991 true, but it there ever any raw broccoli recipes in canto cooking?
Boiling will lower the nutrient content in your veggies. If you're not drinking the water where you boiled your broccoli, you better steam it then.
@@edienano1013 Boiling for a minute or steaming for a minute is basically the same.
You lose important nutrition. @@birbdad1842
i find this works really well.. unfortunately salt is so expensive in singapore, and using it to soak vegetables everyday is not going to be sustainable for me. i would however recommend buying cheaper varieties of salt to do the soaking / cleaning and the norton salt primarily for seasoning ..
Vinegar + salt for 5 minutes then 3 rinses of each piece in water lets goo
I am also washing it with salt and vinegar. In cold water. Almost the most groceries and fruits
Omg 🫠 say less… gonna do this now
You need to add flour to get the bugs out.
You would need more salt, but then wouldn’t that dehydrate the vegetable? I just wash mine in hot water and then cook them.
Cooking kills bacteria and insect eggs lol
Just rinse well and cook it. Way easier
Wouldn't heat also kill the bacteria? Isn't that the reason we cook food!?
people in comments are fools. even if cooking will get rid of bacteria and insects, its still good to rinse before cooking. you get rid of any excess dirt or pesticides. even more crucial if you get it fresh picked.
Boiling water usually kills that stuff too
Honestly, this is a pointless step.
Yea it’s grounded in tradition, tho it still doesn’t have scientific merit.
Like, just eat the insect eggs, that’s why you have stomachs acid.
Thank you for the tips!!
Wash with salt water 5 mins
I would sometimes parboil broccoli for 2-3 minutes to soften stalks before stir frying. Never heard of soaking in salt water, but it makes sense.
I thought it's enough to cook veggies in boiling f***ing water. We've started making everything a science.
And waste free bug protein no thanks lmao I’m joking
why not just boil it in salt water and save some time
I don’t think the concentration of salt and extra time is worth it more than just rinsing. Also the insect eggs should be harmless otherwise, especially when cooked. Not sure about this tip..
its just an extra safety step. not necessary.
But but but, it’s vegan!
Am glad this technique is shared, I always wonder how to slice and clean broccoli coz when u wash it directly in faucet most of its top got washed away....😬 Thanks for this help👍🫰
This isn't a fact, it's an opinion 🤣
Wouldn’t cooking kill described bacteria?!
Better yet don’t eat broccoli
who the fuck cares if ya eat a bug or two.. we as a species are so weird
I just cook my broccoli 😆 any bugs are extra protein lol
Ewww!
Right on Pappy Lau we know about microscopic bugs of eggs and even bacteria such as salmonella and Listeria..
Or just cook it
I’ve never washed broccoli in my life
Then you've never examined it before cooking.. ive found all kinds of things in fresh broccoli. Yesterday i had to elect not to buy some because it was all inundated with bugs.
I wished I never watched this video
My mom do this technique too :D
