Winter Fruit Woes? Keep Your Produce Fresh Longer with These Simple Tricks!
- •Fruits like oranges, sweet limes, and lemons spoil quickly in winter due to ethylene gas released by other fruits.
- •Separate ethylene-producing fruits (bananas, apples) from citrus fruits to extend shelf life.
- •Store fruits in open baskets or mesh containers for proper air circulation, avoiding closed containers.
- •Use newspaper or tissue paper at the bottom of fruit baskets to absorb excess moisture and prevent mold.
- •Avoid washing fruits before storage; wash them only before consumption to prevent premature rotting.
Why It Matters: Simple storage methods like separation, air circulation, and moisture control keep winter fruits fresh longer.
