Clamping

[ande]

Around here (this climate) this is a usefull and free way to preserve root crops
Quote: Clamping offers a simple and effective way to store many common root crops such as carrots, potatoes and beetroot. It works on the principle that roots come from the ground, and therefore are best kept in the ground. Simple really.
