According to the survey, China's pesticide use is primarily organophosphorus. Organophosphorus pesticides will rapidly decompose and fail in an alkaline environment, so soaking in alkaline water is an effective way to remove pesticide residues.

More brine cleaning method for cabbage, onions, and other tight vegetables. In general, soak vegetables in light brine for 10 minutes. It is best to split the vegetables into pieces so that each side is fully exposed to brine, which can remove some pesticide residues and the roots or leaves of small insects.
