Fruits and nuts are a great way to add some variety to your diet. They’re also notoriously fragile, so it’s important that you know how to store them properly. This guide will walk you through the best ways to store fruits and nuts so they’ll last longer and taste great when you want them.
How to Store Fruits
- When it comes to storing fruits, it’s important to know the best way for keeping them fresh.
- You should store your fruits in the refrigerator if you want them to last longer. This can be done by placing your fruit in a sealed container or wrapping it tightly in plastic wrap before putting it in the fridge. If you don’t have access to either of these options, then simply wash off any dirt and then place them on top of your refrigerator where they will have plenty of air circulation around them while still being kept cool enough by all those other things being stored there (like leftovers).
- Fruits that are ripe but not quite ready yet should also be refrigerated until they are ready for eating so as not to spoil prematurely due to overripening at room temperature
How to Store Nuts
Store your nuts in the refrigerator. The cold temperatures will help to keep them fresh for longer and prevent them from going rancid.
Make sure you store them in an airtight container, as they’re prone to absorbing moisture if left loose.
Don’t place your nuts near spices or herbs, as these can absorb their oils and cause them to go rancid. Don’t also store them near potatoes or other starchy vegetables–they give off gases that make nuts go rancid quickly!
