When I get home from shopping every week, I fill my sink with water and vinegar. As I unload my bags, I just drop my produce in the sink to soak until I'm done with everything else. And then I process and store it immediately. Then everything is clean and instantly consumable for my family.
I just can’t…with all the nasty food bits and who knows what that go through my sink on the daily, plus the hard water, the gunk that I know resides in the drain, even when I try to clean it… 🤣 Do you sanitize your sink first?
@@kristinanoall yes, I sanitize it first. I will Scrub it out with a bleach based cleaner like Soft Scrub. Then, rinse with scalding water.

DO the same every peel and trimming gets into a container in the freezer and when its full i cook veggistock from it even onion and potato skin is a keeper
We use all the celery leaves too... and the bottom of the celery, we put on a dish and stand that core up and it will regrow... pretty fast, even without planting!
When you make a crumble, freeze the butter and use a cheese grater to shred it before adding it to a crumble or biscuit dough. It works beautifully with must less effort.
I'm in Atlanta and we do cornbread with and without sugar... it depends on what the cornbread is going with... if we're having it with green or black eyed peas or something that we're going to use the bread to soop up the juice with it needs to be a more savory bread and if we're frying chicken or pork chops or something dry and the cornbreads a side by itself then we make it sweet
Christine. I need you to know how wonderful you are. It has been a hard week (first week of school) and I fell sleep early. Woke up to a note this morning that I need to get myself ready to virtually teach on very short notice (yay for positive tests results for colleagues) 😭and this video is helping to turn my attitude around. I am tired, I am stressed, I am overwhelmed but your fun personality is giving me motivation to get up and get going. Thank you!
My husband is a professional chef/ baker at our local university. He said to proof your muffins put a pan of water in the oven, cook for about 10 mins and then remove the water pan and finish baking the muffins.
Thank you for the Misen code. Fabulous timing! Daughter is moving out and I was able to get her some nice knives AND get $19 off AND free shipping! I love a deal!
Ditto, and if you don't wanna cut your head off every time, set your camera to see the top of your kitchen cupboards. 🤗 you're awesome! Thanks for ideas 💡!!!
I never put sugar in my cornbread. I use a half flour half cornmeal mix to make it. As for celery, sometimes I use the bottom and leaves for stock, and sometimes I plant them in a flower pot and let them grow.
Hey Christine! Just wanted to lend a tip on those blueberry muffins which is to lightly toss your blueberries in flour before adding it to your mixture so the blueberries don't sink. It helps! Thanks for the video!
I do the same thing with onions as you did with celery. I sometimes only need about half an onion for something so I chop the entire thing and freeze the other half. I usually use them in soups, stews, pot roast, just makes it a little faster.
Denise from Germany. I find with the celery I freeze in little baggies and it never freezes in chunks. I can always just take out a little or a lot. Viola. No need to freeze flat on parchment paper , saves time, parchment paper and effort. Good luck y'all (We lived in Fort Worth, Texas a while y'all).
I have always loved celery in my chili! Some people think it’s weird, but if they try it they like it!! I started freezing my celery after I saw this video!! Thank you!!
I also put chopped celery in the freezer and it is also one of my favorite freezer hacks. I also do the same thing with green onions and it works absolutely fine but it seems like it wouldn't. I feel sneaky every time I do it, and then I can pull them out to sprinkle on top of things for just a minute in the oven, like cheese fries or nachos. It also works well for soups, or to throw into ramen, and it looks so fancy, like I have my life together or something. Although someone on reddit once yelled at me in a meal prep community about how using frozen celery and carrots is an abomination that they wouldn't serve to their dog or worst enemy, so I guess there's that. ;)
That must be one of those mythical neurotypicals that always had their life together and can do everything in a perfectly ideal way that always has plenty of energy and motivation all the time
Sugar in cornbread!! Absolutely a must in my part of TX. Also if you coat your berries with flour before adding..it helps them from all sinking to the bottom of muffins.
I have a hack for you! wrap the celery in aluminum foil and in the fridge (veg drawer) it will stay good for weeks, You might want to take the leaves off, they might go mouldy, but mine stay fine for a month or longer.
I'm trying to learn how to keep food from going bad before I cook it. I end up not eating for about a week every month because I cant afford to eat. Your videos are great and I'm learning so much from you, thank you.
I love your videos very inspiring. I'm a new stay at home mom and my 6mth old son loves watching your videos with me while I plan our weekly meals. He doesn't watch alot of tv but he just smiles when i turn on your videos.
I am personally very, very anti sugar in cornbread and I grew up just south of Atlanta and am still in the south. Some people make it a little sweet though for certain things, but it’s never been for me. I always hated all of the prepackaged corn muffin mixes because they were sweet! According to my grandmothers, all cornbread needs to be is self-rising cornmeal, salted butter, and buttermilk.
That cherry crumble looked amazing never put cream cheese into a crumble before. Being a traditionalist from the uk we always serve custard with our crumbles xx
Frozen celery is genius. I often just go ahead and cook some celery and onions together (using up all my "extra" celery, if I bought it for a specific recipe) and then freeze that in sour cream containers. Ready for soup bases or to zhuzh up some Stovetop Stuffing, my one true love. :)
I just made 5 containers of chili, 5 containers of goulash and 1 container of taco meat. 4 each of chili and goulash in the freezer and taco meat in freezer. All with only 2.25 lbs of ground beef
I put sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, and cayenne when I do jiffy mix :) It’s sooo delicious with extra sugar on top too Creates a little crispy crust that is addictive
I always watch everyone of your and Jen's videos faithfully....for the first few minutes I thought I was watching one of Jen's videos with the XOXO salad spinner and the cleaning of the produce and the Misen knives...lol....I love your antics and lively personality...cherry crisp looks absolutely delicious.
oooh, great celery freezer hack! Also, now I want a fruit crisp. I'm making mine with... wait for it... nectarines! Yes! Thanks Christine for the great ideas!
I just bought a cherry pitter and it has totally changed the game! I live where there is a plethora of cherries every summer, and I used to pit the cherries by hand. Took forever! Highly recommend spending $13 for a cherry pitter if you’re gonna freeze them or make a pie 👍🏼
Pitting cherries without a pitter? Use an empty wine bottle and a chopstick. Position the cherry over the opening and press down with the blunt end of the chopstick . The pit will fall in the bottle.
Every now and then I will watch another youtuber for awhile, well, like one day and then I'm back over to your channel. Your recipes always look so good, reasonably priced and I like how you freeze some for later and have a lot of variety. I also like your refreshing personality...you make me laugh which is a good thing. I mostly cook for myself but my son eats here once in awhile and I like surprising him with something new. I think he will like the carrot, tomato paste, Italian seasoning recipe with penne or rotini...I know I will. Thanks for the tip on freezing celery. I always freeze my blueberries that way and can't wait to do up some celery so it won't spoil as usual. Keep up the fantastic job you do and I still think you should have your own TV show! Trish
FYI saw on twitter and this recipe for very ripe bananas is excellent. Make pancake mix. 1.5 mashed bananas for every cup of dry pancake mix. Add 1 tsp vanilla. Mix and make. Awesome!
Here in the south my family does not put sugar in the cornbread. We use crisco, white lily cornmeal, and buttermilk. We definitely pay more than that for white lily products. We make homemade biscuits by just substituting the cornmeal for flour. Love your channel.
Lifelong Arkansas resident. No to sugar and no to flour in my cornbread. White cornmeal and baking soda egg and oil. Preheat the cast iron with oil so the mixture sizzles going in. The edges are crispy!
Hey there, I'm in Alabama and I do put a small amount of sugar in my cornbread if it is buttermilk mix. It can be a little bitter otherwise. But I don't like it super sweet. Love your video's they are super helpful and fun to watch!
I do the same chop and freeze with half a Costco giant bag of onions and when I find cheap bell peppers in the summer. It's always way more than we can use before they turn. Having chopped and ready in the freezer for nites I feel lazy is amazing
Cornbread with sugar is Johnny cake. Without its cornbread. I like both but hubby preferred cornbread sooo that’s what I made. His family was from Atlanta
I also take blueberries and put them in a pan make them pop so it’s all juicy wonderfulness. Then I add that to plain yogurt, top pancakes, or use it as healthy “jelly” for toast. I’m going to have to try to freeze celery!! Great hack
A little sugar in cornbread especially if you add in onion or corn. It sweetens up the onion or corn, but you don't taste it in the cornbread. I usually add sugar (about 1-2 tsp), onion and grated cheddar cheese to my cornbread.
Canadian, obviously not a southerner, but I put about a tsp (if any)sugar in my cornbread. My kids on the other hand like the Marie Callender corn bread mix which takes like a dessert cake to me.
I make a blueberry crisp that's similar to your cherry one. Maybe a little less sweet though. I actually like eating mine cold for breakfast :P Sugar in cornbread for sure :)
I freeze my celery leaf and all. I was using so much brown sugar making Jens Korean beef I started making my own. 1-2 tsp molasses to 1 lb of granulated sugar mix by hand wearing gloves. Add more molasses if you like darker brown sugar x
It is recommended to wash melons in soap and water before you cut into it so if there is bacteria on the rind it doesn’t get dragged by the knife into the middle.
I do it with almost everything! Get scratch n dent peppers, onions, cabbage, carrots, celery, radishes, spinach, beets, turnip/rutabaga. Peel and cut away anything you wouldn't eat. Chop the veggies you would like chopped. Grate the others. I also do fresh zucchini, radishes, and whatever I feel like, grated. I 'mold' the grated stuff into a small bowl or sour cream container in one or two cup measurements and plunk it onto a pan prepared with the plastic from the cereal boxes, (to keep from sticking) that'll go in the freezer. Later i transfer to freezer Tupperware or freezer bags, labeled and dated. I throw these veggiesicles into soups, casseroles, muffins, stirfries. I also freeze a lot of fruit if I'm not using it fast enough, including melons and segmented oranges, for smoothies.
I love your prep videos! ❤️ A super helpful hint that I found is that if you put your berries into a regular old Mason jar they will last twice as long. Just make sure that they are dry and that the lid is a regular 2 part thingamajig!😁 I don’t know why but if you use a plastic lid or a one piece lid it doesn’t work.🤷♀️ Also those celery leaves are awesome in dishes I just dice them up like I would any herbs.
When I get home from shopping every week, I fill my sink with water and vinegar. As I unload my bags, I just drop my produce in the sink to soak until I'm done with everything else. And then I process and store it immediately. Then everything is clean and instantly consumable for my family.
Going to try this seems alot easier, than what I've been doing.
I just can’t…with all the nasty food bits and who knows what that go through my sink on the daily, plus the hard water, the gunk that I know resides in the drain, even when I try to clean it… 🤣 Do you sanitize your sink first?
@@kristinanoall you could buy a wash tub from Dollar Tree to use for produce washing. That is what I do.
@@kristinanoall yes, I sanitize it first. I will Scrub it out with a bleach based cleaner like Soft Scrub. Then, rinse with scalding water. Then clean with a fresh dishcloth and an all purpose cleaner like Meyer's. Then I dry the sink with a clean dry tea towel. My stopper is always washed and resides in my dish rack to keep it free from mildew. And I always clean all dishes, loading into my dishwasher, before I clean the sink. The point is to ensure my sink is completely free from particles and debris before I wash my produce.
@@hannahkayee831 my only deviation on this is that I don't wash my leafy greens right away. I follow the same procedure with my salad spinner when I prepare my greens for consumption, and only on the day we plan to eat them. I drain them off after every spin, and I do at least 3 spin cycles with them. I also place a clean dry tea towel or paper towel on top when I spin to help absorb excess moisture.
I also freeze the celery ends that are normally tossed in the trash. They are great for making stock or bone broth. I keep a bag in the freezer for any veggie ends, peels, etc .for this purpose.
DO the same every peel and trimming gets into a container in the freezer and when its full i cook veggistock from it even onion and potato skin is a keeper
I do the same.
I love to use celery leaves in homemade ranch! It’s delicious!
I do the same carrot peels and celery ends. Freeze and also freeze your chicken bones for stock. Also onion skins and ends.
I do too!
We use all the celery leaves too... and the bottom of the celery, we put on a dish and stand that core up and it will regrow... pretty fast, even without planting!
Trying this now!!!
When you make a crumble, freeze the butter and use a cheese grater to shred it before adding it to a crumble or biscuit dough. It works beautifully with must less effort.

Hear me out sweet cornbread as a side with a spicy dish
When cooking meat balls or any type of meat that is thick poke holes so it can cook threw evenly in air fryer
Good tip!

I have too, live in Ohio

Yelling at the screen...use the celery leaves...they are awesome
As a true Southern Momma….YES!! To the sugar in the cornbread 💕
I never put sugar in my cornbread. I use a half flour half cornmeal mix to make it. As for celery, sometimes I use the bottom and leaves for stock, and sometimes I plant them in a flower pot and let them grow.
I loves these type of videos, the spark my motivation to get in the kitchen and put my garden harvest to use!
Hey Christine! Just wanted to lend a tip on those blueberry muffins which is to lightly toss your blueberries in flour before adding it to your mixture so the blueberries don't sink. It helps! Thanks for the video!
Cornbread is for beans and chilli and greens. The only cornbread that should have sugar in it is Jiffy, and Jiffy is to be ate by itself with butter.
I take the end part of the celery and put it into an inch of water and regrow it. Same with my cabbage and lettuce.
I do the same thing with onions as you did with celery. I sometimes only need about half an onion for something so I chop the entire thing and freeze the other half. I usually use them in soups, stews, pot roast, just makes it a little faster.
You can chop and freeze the bell peppers too.

Yes sugar in cornbread....just a little (really)! And NO tea....not sweet or unsweetened. Had to toss that in there too.
I'm trying to learn how to keep food from going bad before I cook it. I end up not eating for about a week every month because I cant afford to eat. Your videos are great and I'm learning so much from you, thank you.
you could leave the stalk end attached until you finish chopping your celery
I use Rumford baking powder because it's without aluminum. I suggest you switch.
I keep mirepoix in the freezer as well. It's always ready to go for soups.

I totes do this with all my celery in the summer. that and dehydrate it!
I love sweet corn bread. The more sugar the better with a nice salty butter.
Great food Prep. Am sure the family enjoyed all these treats
I've never thought to freeze celery before!
I had not thought to freeze chopped celery. 🤯 also, that was a cool editing trick with the quad screen. 😊

Born in Louisiana, lived in Texas since I was 10, YES, sugar in cornbread!!!!!
Started doing the frozen celery hack this year, since I never had celery on hand when I needed it....game changer❤
Onions, too!
I do it with almost everything! Get scratch n dent peppers, onions, cabbage, carrots, celery, radishes, spinach, beets, turnip/rutabaga. Peel and cut away anything you wouldn't eat. Chop the veggies you would like chopped. Grate the others. I also do fresh zucchini, radishes, and whatever I feel like, grated.

Sugar always in cornbread! In fact, brown sugar makes it even better.
That's a ton of sugar for the cherry dish with the cherries see sweet enough
Yes sugar in Texas!
This was such a useful video. Got the knife and will never have to toss out bad celery ever again!
No sugar in my cornbread in Alabama! I like my bread savory not sweet.
Never sugar in cornbread, unless it's just a tiny bit to counteract any bitter flavor.
