Everyone wants the food in their home to stay tasty and fresh for as long as possible.
To do this, you should remember simple rules that many people forget.
How to Store Food at Home
Vegetables and fruits
The first is that not all vegetables and fruits should be put in the refrigerator. For example, tomatoes and bananas are best kept at room temperature.
Those fruits that can be stored on the refrigerator shelves are best placed in paper bags beforehand, which will absorb excess moisture. You can also place dry napkins next to them to avoid rotting.
Oils
Besides, olive or sunflower oil will not like the cold. It will only thicken them.
It is better to keep such products in dark and dry cupboards.
Ready meals
Keep them away from foods that need to be processed. It wouldn't hurt to put cutlets or pasta in a container. Some treats can be frozen to increase their shelf life.
Every few days, you need to inspect your supplies. Spoiled food should be thrown out immediately.
Meat
Keep chilled fresh meat in the refrigerator for no more than four days, and after opening the package - no more than 24 hours.
If you want to extend the shelf life, it is better to put it in the freezer.
