How to plump up salad greens?

Bought a bag of salad greens and left it in the fridge and totally forgot about its existence. Few days later, decided to have salad for lunch. When I took it out from the fridge, the leaves were all looking limp. Ever had such an experience? For me.. It happens pretty often as I don't really take stock with what I have in the fridge. Hubby is constantly complaining about this..

Fret no more! Here are some easy steps to plump up those greens:

1. Soak the greens in a bowl of room temperature water (tap water is fine) for a couple of minutes. This helps to open up the tiny pores on the leaves and allow it to absorb as much water particles as possible.

2. Remove the greens and pour away the water.

3. Add ice and water into the bowl.

4. Soak in the greens as the ice water for 30 seconds. 

5. Drain the greens and dry them completely using a salad spinner

6. Finally, there you have it... crisp and plump salad greens. Drizzle your favourite dressing and enjoy!
