Many people think braiding onions is the best way to store them, but the truth is, onions are heavy, and properly cured onions have dry brittle stems, meaning braiding may not be the best solution. That's why we use the old-fashioned method of STRINGING onions for long-term storage. Watch the video as I demonstrate how to string onions. For more information check out our blog post: https://homesteadingfamily.com/how-to-store-onions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MORE ABOUT US! WELCOME! We're so glad you're here! We are Josh and Carolyn Thomas.

Many people think braiding onions is the best way to store them, but the truth is, onions are heavy, and properly cured onions have dry brittle stems, meaning braiding may not be the best solution. That's why we use the old-fashioned method of STRINGING onions for long-term storage.

Watch the video as I demonstrate how to string onions. For more information check out our blog post: homesteadingfamily.com/how-to-store-onions

How to Store Onions the RIGHT Way - No More Braiding Onions!

105.4K views October 3rd

Garlic, tomatoes, green beans, oregano, and tomatoes come together to make the best snack! Fermentation is a wonderful preservation method that allows you to put up a large amount of food in a very short period of time. Because we experienced a hard freeze a bit early this year, we needed to preserve a LOT of green beans all at once! In this video, Carolyn shares our favorite fermented pickled green bean recipe that we call "Pizza Beans". By adding ingredients like garlic, oregano, and diced tomatoes, our pickled green beans have a slightly "pizza-like" flavor that we all love! For the full recipe, visit our blog: homesteadingfamily.com/lacto-fermented-green-beans Grab our favorite fermenting weights here: https://homesteadingfamily.com/fermenting-weights-lehmans And grab the book, Traditionally Fermented Foods here: https://amzn.to/2BYaNYD ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MORE ABOUT US!
