Preserving And Storing Pink Lady Slipper Flower
1. CUT TOPS AND ROOTS FROM RADISHES
Be sure to save them — radish leaves, tops, and roots can be dehydrated to use other ways.
2. WASH WELL
I make sure to wash in a large bowl of water to make sure to give them room. Use a vegetable brush to remove all grit and old leaves.
2. CUT RADISHES
Cut radishes into 1-inch pieces. I leave small radishes whole.
3. BLANCH FOR 2-3 MINUTES
Blanching helps slow down the enzymatic process to save the plant tissue and keep the color vibrant.
4. PLACE INTO AN ICE BATH
5. FLASH FREEZE
Place your radish pieces on cookie sheets and store in the freezer for at least six hours.
