Before having a salad, wash your lettuce thoroughly
Cesar salad lovers, you’ll want to write this one down. Crispy lettuce is delicious, even more so if combined with juicy chicken and parmesan cheese. But there’s nothing worse than getting all the ingredients ready on your plate and realizing your lettuce is still dirty. Some vegetables come unwashed, so it’s pivotal to clean them to ensure that you won’t get a stomach ache afterward.

If you don’t wash salad leaves properly, you can end up ingesting the germs that stick to their surface, and get a foodborne illness. But worry no more, as salt has you covered once again. Fill up a container with water and three teaspoons of salt, and swirl your salad leaves in the solution. After that, wash them one more time under the sink.
