Onion and garlic

They can be stored in a warm or cool ventilated area for up to 2-3 months.

You can also freeze chopped onions and garlic for longer storage.

Apples

In a cool place, apples will last up to six months.

However, this rule does not apply to fruits that have dark spots or other defects on the sides. They should be eaten as soon as possible.

Carrot

The shelf life of carrots under the right conditions (in a cool place) is also several months.

Place the vegetable in a perforated plastic bag lined with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
