Many people like eating apples because it is crunchy and the apple skin also contains lots of vitamins. But it is also where many chemicals accumulate due to preservation.
First, wash the apples with fresh water once to remove dirt on the crust. Then wash your apple skin thoroughly with diluted salt water. The disinfectants contained in the salt will cleanse the remaining parasites on the fruit. Pay careful attention to the apple's nipple because it is the place where most bacteria and chemicals are concentrated. Finally, rinse with cold water and drain. You can rest assured about the hygiene of the apple.
To avoid reducing the amount of vitamins, wash the fruit quickly under cold water with a hand or soft brush. After washing, they lose their ability to hold on for long because the outer shell is damaged. Therefore, the fruit after washing should not leave long. In order not to lose the nutrients, when sharpening need to use stainless steel knife.
