ASMR Kitchen Sink Cereal Bars

Was planning on doing a voice over but the satisfying sounds said otherwise so enjoy!

Ice, Icy Baby 🧊 🥬

An ice bath can revitalize wilted romaine lettuce by helping it rehydrate and regain crispness. Submerging the lettuce in ice water for 15-30 minutes can be effective in reviving limp leaves.

1. Prepare the ice bath:
Fill a large bowl with cold water and add ice cubes until the water is very cold.
2. Submerge the lettuce:
Carefully place the wilted romaine lettuce leaves in the ice water, ensuring they are fully submerged.
3. Soak for 15-30 minutes:
Let the lettuce soak in the ice water for about 15-30 minutes, allowing the leaves to rehydrate.
4. Remove and dry:
After soaking, remove the lettuce from the ice water and gently pat it dry with a clean towel.
