Essential Ingredients- Chicory
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare an airtight container. Line the bottom of the container with paper towels, and lightly moisten them using a spray bottle. The paper towels should be damp, not soaking wet.
Step 2
Next, carefully place the fresh chicory on top of the dampened paper towels. Try to arrange the chicory in a single layer, without too much overlapping, to allow for better air circulation.
Step 3
Once the chicory is in the container, cover it with another layer of paper towels. Lightly spray this top layer of paper towels with water as well. This double layer of moisture helps prevent the chicory from drying out.
Step 4
Finally, securely close the lid of the airtight container. Minimizing air exposure is key to maintaining freshness. Store the container in the refrigerator, and your chicory will stay wonderfully crisp for days, ready for your culinary creations.
