Any housewife knows: if you put cheese in the refrigerator without film or a bag, the product will soon become weathered, darken and harden.

However, using cling film and a plastic bag is also not a solution.

Even in such a “shell” the cheese will still spoil quite quickly.

How then to store the product correctly? How to protect it before putting it in the refrigeration device?

When stored in a bag, the product quickly loses its softness and bright taste.

After just 1-2 days, the cheese will resemble plastic rather than food.

The same applies to other food products (such as vegetables and fruits): it is also not worth storing them in bags.

How to store cheese properly

It is advisable to purchase a small glass container that can be closed with a lid.

Such glass containers are sold in specialized stores: there should be no problems with purchasing them.

Yes, you will have to spend money on such containers. But it is worth it: cheese stored in a glass container lasts a very long time.

The product will retain its freshness, softness, tenderness and bright taste.
