How To Store Onions Using Pantyhose. This is a great and cheap way to store onions to make them last for months. Follow these step by step instructions!
First, pick your onions and let them dry. We separate them so they aren't touching and let them dry on the roof for a few days. If you let them dry outside, make sure you check the weather so that it will not rain. Moisture is your worst enemy when drying and storing onions so the point is to dry them.
After they have dried in the sun for a few days, use your hand to gently brush off any dirt on them. This will help make sure nothing is left on them that will make them spoil. Now, bring them indoors.
Next you want to cut the stem to about 1 inch for each onion.
Now grab your pair of pantyhose and cut them apart so you have both legs separately. Now you want to store dropping the onions into them. It’s best if you tie each large onion apart so no onions are touching each other. This will prevent them from spoiling one another if one goes bad. It also will allow you to take one onion out a time, as you will cut one out.
And there you have it, a easy and great way to store your onions to last you for months!
