Curry Leaf Cleaning Hacks: Removing Pesticides Safely

Curry leaves, used for flavour, often have pesticides.

Washing them in plain water isn't enough.

To clean them, try these easy steps: soak in salt/vinegar, then in tamarind water, then baking soda water.

Rinse each time.

Finally, rinse in warm water.

These simple steps help remove the chemicals, leaving the leaves clean and ready to use in your cooking.
