    Put 3-4 cloves in each jar of lentils/dal to safeguard from small insects.

    Boric powder? Are u serious? Even if you wash traces will be left. Boric powder is used to kill or get rid of ants and cockroaches. Please be careful. Traces wont may be kill you at once but why to simply load your body with toxins .

    :hello:Thanks for the valuable and most useful tip.
    2. But there is another school of thought about the printing ink in soggy paper might contaminate the vegetable that is covered with news paper. some news paper to save cost use inferior printing ink that stays somewhat wet even after reaching destination or the reader.

    Good to know the ammonia in hot water tip to clean stained vessels. I have a lot of expensive cookware that looks stained and old. Will certainly be trying, thanks!
