Uses for leftover fruit and vegetable peels

剩余的水果和蔬菜果皮的用途

Don't throw your kitchen scraps away; put them to work. The outer skins of fruit and vegetables are filled with flavor and vitamins, and most often have enough matter left in them for another go-round.

不要把厨房里的残羹剩饭扔掉;让它们起到作用。水果和蔬菜的外皮充满了味道和维生素，通常还会留下足够的物质供下一次循环使用。

Some people are peelers, some people aren't. Some people swear by the nutrients and fiber found in produce skins, others shy away from the taste or texture, or prefer removing the outer layer to reduce pesticide load. Regardless of your peeling preferences, citrus rinds, potato and other root/tuber peels, scooped-out avocados, and even cheese rinds all have more than one life.

有些人会削皮，有些人不会。有些人笃信农产品表皮中含有的营养和纤维，有些人则不喜欢它的味道或口感，或者宁愿去掉外层以减少农药用量。不管你喜欢什么样的去皮方式，柑橘皮、土豆皮和其他根/块茎皮、挖出来的牛油果，甚至奶酪皮都有不止一种使用方式。

Aim to use organic produce in these applications, and make sure to scrub well. And if you don't have time or need for them at the moment, most of them can be frozen for future use.

目标是在这些应用中使用有机产品，并确保擦洗良好。如果你现在没有时间或者不需要它们，它们中的大部分可以被冷冻起来以备将来使用。

1. Clean greasy messes: Before bringing out the big (toxic) cleaning guns in the kitchen, try lemon. Sprinkle affected area with salt or baking soda (to act as an abrasive) and then rub with juiced lemon halves. (Be careful using lemon on sensitive surfaces such as marble.)

清理油污:在把厨房里的大家伙(有毒的)清洁剂拿出来之前，先试试柠檬。在患处撒上盐或小苏打粉(起到研磨的作用)，然后用柠檬汁摩擦患处。(在大理石等敏感表面使用柠檬时要小心。)

2. Shine your coffee pot: Follow the old diner trick to make glass coffee pots sparkle: add ice, salt and lemon rinds to an empty coffee pot; swirl around for a minute or two, dump and rinse well.

把你的咖啡壶擦亮:遵循古老的用餐技巧，让玻璃咖啡壶闪闪发光:在空咖啡壶里加冰、盐和柠檬皮;搅拌一到两分钟，倒出清洗干净。

4.Keep brown sugar soft: If you regularly fall victim to the brick in the pantry known as hardened brown sugar, try adding some lemon peel (with traces of pulp and pith removed) to keep it moist and pliable.

保持红糖的柔软性:如果你的糖经常被厨房里的砖墙压坏，你可以试着加入一些柠檬皮(去掉一些果肉和髓)来保持它的湿润和柔韧。
