Revealing the Secret to Peeling Apples Without Browning (Page 2 ) | May 18, 2025

3. Use Carbonated Water

Soak apple slices in carbonated beverages like soda, cola, or ginger ale for 3–5 minutes, then rinse.

Why it works:
These drinks often contain citric acid, which slows down oxidation. However, apples may absorb the flavor and color of the drink, so rinsing is recommended.

4. Use Plastic Wrap
After peeling, wrap the apples tightly with plastic wrap. It’s easier to wrap halves rather than small slices.

Why it works:
Limiting the apple’s exposure to oxygen prevents oxidation. Ensure a tight seal—any air exposure can quickly cause browning.

5. Use Fruit Preservation Powder
Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of fruit preservation powder (a mix of citric and ascorbic acid) over apple slices.

Why it works:
This powder is food-safe and keeps apples fresh for up to 8 hours. It’s available in the canned goods aisle of most grocery stores.
