Storing Onions Without Braiding

We’ve been growing onions in our garden the past few years, and I came across the following video from Homesteading Family that taught me something new.

In the past I did the braiding method, and she’s right, the stems lose their integrity over time. I’ve also stored them using pantyhose before, but this method looks more promising: stringing them up.

I look forward to trying it out.

Of course, the key is to make sure the onions are cured properly (neck & stem of the onion completely dried out) — something I haven’t always been diligent at doing in the past. Going forward though, I aim to do better. 🙂

Thank you to Homesteading Family for helping mentor me in this journey back to living off the land.
