How to store food longer? 10 tips


How to store food longer? 10 tipsThe right storage products you will throw away less food will be able to keep the products fresh and rarely go to the store. Our 10 tips will help you not only eat better, but also to save money.


1. Keep the temperature in the refrigerator for not less than 5 and not restart the refrigerator. Cold air there must be free to move.


2. Wash fruits and vegetables before you eat, but not before storing because of the moisture they deteriorate faster. Do not store fruits together with vegetables, some fruits emit ethylene gas (e.g., apples), which reduces the shelf life of vegetables.


3. Store mushrooms in a paper bag in the refrigerator. If you put them in an airtight container and leave in a plastic bag, they will become slimy.


4. The stems of vegetables, such as celery, asparagus, artichokes, you need to wrap in a damp towel before storing in the refrigerator so they lasted longer.


5. Remove only enough bread sliced loaves as you need for one or two days, and store in an airtight container, and freeze the rest. If you store it in the kitchen, the bread may become moldy, or if the refrigerator will harden.


6. Store bananas in the refrigerator. The peel will turn brown, but the pulp will remain normal. If you want bananas faster ripe, put them in a paper bag with avocado.


7. Eggs are recommended to be stored at a constant temperature or in the refrigerator or in the pantry, if you have it.


8. Store tomatoes at room temperature. In the refrigerator stops ripening, and tomatoes lose their flavor.


9. Potatoes are also stored at room temperature.


10. Never store dairy products in the refrigerator door. For freshness, we need a permanent cold, but because of the fact that the door is constantly opened and closed, the temperature is changed.
