Lemon Juice contains acids that act as a preservative preventing the natural aging process of an apple from ruining it. You should try putting lemon juice on your apples before you go to school, so they don't spoil.
The PH of the lemon juice reacts with the enzymes in the potato therefore bringing the PH to the optimum level.
Brief but hey no one will prob. need this answered plus they spelled potato wrong..
It is because there is natural vitamin C in the lemon juice. Vitamin C is an acid and it prevents oxidation of the fruit surface. Try Orange Juice too if you don't care for acidy apples.no because eh
Raw Potatoes, you can use lemon or salt it will help but they may darken a little, but nothing to worry about. If you are doing this in advance then you are probably making a casserole and you won't notice the difference. But use more water than you think, don't just cover them.
After I have cut potatoes I will leave them in cool water till I'm ready to cook them. This keeps them from browning for a short time.
because of a acid the vinegar has (i think)
Yes it should. Potatoes turn brown when exposed to air. Covering them with any liquid should keep them from turning brown.
Yes you can. And you should refridgerate them. However, do not be surprised to find that they have turned brown. They will still be edible though.
will covering peeled potatoes in olive oil keep them from turning brown
I wouldn't recommend having a marinade on potatoes overnight. You can cut your potatoes up the night before and have them soak in water to avoid turning them brown/black. Just make sure the water is about an inch over the potatoes. If you want to marinate, an hour of soak time is good enough for potatoes. It's the oxygen that is touching the potatoes that turns them, so there might be some areas of the potato not completely covered in oil. If you still want to try it, make sure to have an airtight lid on.
To prevent potatoes from turning brown while peeling them, put them in cold water until ready to cook.
Soaking potatoes rids them of their rich potassium. Potassium is a healthy vital nutrient for most people, however, high potassium levels can be dangerous for dialysis patients or people who have kidney failure. My mother was a dialysis patient and if she wanted to eat them we had to soak them at least 24 hours in the refrigerator.
Kindly assist with what I can put in bulk cut potatoes to prevent them fro turning brown
If you put lemon juice in the water it will prevent the browning.
keep the sliced potatoes in cold water until you are ready to make the dish
I love to slice them and brown them in a skillet with a little butter.
cook the skin its a real treat!
After they are cooked, I pour some Italian dressing over them and mix. This also imparts a nice flavor and keeps them from sticking together. When they are cool, I add the rest of my ingredients, and the mayonaise.
