Waffle weave fabric is a woven fabric with a recessed square pattern. The weave was given this name due to the raised edges around the recessed squares that give the fabric a breakfast waffle look. Waffle weave fabric is available in different weights from very fine to medium to coarse. The light weight waffle weave is often times used to make dish cloths, while the coarser waffle weave material makes plush towels and bathrobes. But for this article we are going to talk briefly about organic waffle weave cotton and the benefits of this fabric as it pertains to food preservation. Did you know that organic cotton waffle weave is a great all-natural material that can be used for keeping greens fresh and wilt-free? It’s true. Keep your salad greens crisper longer without wilting, browning or sliminess by wrapping your freshly bought produce in this highly absorbent yet soft fabric for perfect salads each time. The organic waffle weave fabric is made from 100% cotton fibers that are chemical and fragrance free. That means no pesticides, no dyes, and no artificial treatments or finishings. Make sure to wash the weave one or two times before the initial use to ensure that the fibers are softened enough so that they will have increased absorbency. Then just wash your greens thoroughly, wrap in your waffle weave fabric and place in the refrigerator. It’s just that easy. Your organic waffle weave fabric is also perfect for straining fruits, berries and beans too. Make sure to keep your organic waffle weave slightly damp so that it doesn’t suck all the moisture from your greens and clean your material every so often to keep it in good condition.
Now that you have yet another use for your waffle weave cotton, share it with others. Fresh organic salads in the summer never tasted better!
