Tools:
Food Revival Hack 1: Revive Stale Bread
Few things are less appetizing than a loaf of stale loaf of bread. Fortunately, reviving your old loaf of bread is easy! Just run the loaf of stale bread under water for a few seconds then bake it at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. When you take the bread out of the oven, it should be the perfect combination of soft and crispy!
Food Revival Hack 2: Revive Overripe Fruit
Overripe fruit can be unappetizing, but that doesn’t mean you should throw it out. Instead, transform your overripe fruit into jam! Just cut the fruit into pieces and boil it with some sugar on an induction burner. Then, spread your jam on your newly revived bread!
Food Revival Hack 3: Revive Tired Celery and Carrots
If your old celery and carrots are looking dried out and unappealing, there’s a simple solution. Just cut off the tops and set them aside for later use (see next hack below). Then, soak the celery and carrots in ice cold water for 30 minutes. When you take them out of the water, they should be perfectly crispy again!
Food Revival Hack 4: Use Up Carrot Tops to Make Pesto
Don’t toss your carrot tops! Use them to make a delicious pesto sauce. Add the carrot tops to a food processor along with 1 ½ cups of basil, ½ cup of pine nuts, 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of honey, and a pinch of coarse salt. Pulse to combine, then add the delicious pesto to pasta, veggies, or the food of your choice.
