How Do You Keep An Apple From Turning Brown?
There’s nothing worse than cutting into a nice, juicy apple only to find the outer layer turn brown within seconds. While skin protects the inside of an apple from oxidizing (which is how the brown color forms), that protection ceases once the interior gets exposed to the air. Luckily, there is a quick and easy way to keep apple slices fresh. Pour ½ cup lemon juice into a small bowl. Cut an apple into eight equal sized slices using a knife or apple slicer. Throw away the core. Soak two slices at a time for 60 seconds. Shake slices free of excess lemon juice. Place slices on paper towel to soak up excess juice. Store dried slices in sealable sandwich bag. Repeat until all slices have soaked and dried.
