My $2 kale bunch sat in the fridge for 9 days before I finally blanched it
I always threw out wilted greens until Tuesday when I watched a cooking show that said to flash boil them for 60 seconds and freeze, so I tried it with that sad kale from Aldi and it actually worked, has anyone else saved a dying bag of spinach this way?
My grandma used to do this thing where she'd dump a whole bag of sad spinach into soup stock and call it "Italian wedding soup" even though there was no wedding and barely any soup. It always tasted fine because garlic fixes everything, which is basically the same logic as your flash boil trick. So yeah, the freezer is a good move but don't sleep on just throwing the wilted stuff into whatever you're cooking that night.
