How do I keep the cabbage until the spring of fresh and juicy.

Today let's talk about such useful vegetables like cabbage. Cabbage has a lot of good for someone who wants to surprise your family with something tasty, for that I am very fond of the vegetable. After all of the cabbage can be cooked a lot of different dishes, such as stuffed cabbage, soup, salad, you can add it as a filling for the pie, or as a side dish to cook. But nothing of the preparations for the winter and say nothing, they always go with a bang!

Especially prized cabbage in the winter, because vegetables are beginning to come to an end and there is only a small variety of them. In this regard, any hostess wants to keep the cabbage fresh for as long as possible.

My cabbage is stored until spring. I want to share with you how I do it turns out.
A few tips:

First, you must select the correct grade.

And it must be done at a time when you start to engage in planting cabbages. If your goal is long-term injury cabbage, then stop your choice on the mid-season and late varieties. What grade I choose? Typically, this Amager, Frost, Gift, Snow White or Kamenka.

Second, timely harvesting.

This is a very important part of the whole process. Vegetable begins to crack if too long on the bed, cracked and cabbage will be kept for as long as desired. Harvest is necessary in dry weather. I never tear off the top leaves, because they are able to protect the head from injury and illness.

Third, cabbage sorting.

Vegetables should be selected correctly. For long-term storage only go up healthy and not overgrown cabbages without damage.

So, when all three council met, we begin to choose their place of storage. Of course, it is best to store the harvest in the pit or in the cellar, if such is not possible, the approach and the apartment.

- storage of the harvest in the cellar:

I prefer to store the harvest in the cellar. You can do this in three ways: in a box with sand, suspended or on the shelf.

Can be decomposed vegetables on a shelf so that the cobs looked up their pre she folded paper or film. This is the easiest way.

How to store in a drawer? Pour sand and stalk vegetables sticks. Cobs leave for five / eight centimeters. In this case, the cabbage will be stored longer.

The third method, you need to wrap the stalk rope and hung on the ceiling in the cellar so that cabbages are not touching each other. My favorite way, because vegetables do not rot for a long time stored.

- storage in the "apartment" conditions:

In general, the harvest can be stored even in the refrigerator, but how many of them to fit it? In the fridge I usually keep a few heads of cabbage, which bring from the cellar.

Well suited for the storage of cabbage balcony. But vegetables need to be folded into insulated boxes, and before that wrap them with paper or film. Need is to cabbages not podmerzli when the temperature drops below zero. The best temperature for the storage cabbage - zero degrees.
