What is the best way to clean vegetables before cooking?!


Question:

What is the best way to clean vegetables before cooking?

I bought some squash from a vendor and I'm not sure if it was organic. I'm kind of worried about pesticides that contain chemicals or animal products. What is the best way to clean the vegetables? I don't have a brush, so any other ways? Thanks!


Answers:

Just rinse it with water and wipe it with a paper towel. I always do that and I'm worried about pesticides too. You could also pour vegetable oil on it and boil it, that kills the bacteria on it too. Use rags if necassary. Hope that helped!
