Simple Ways to Store Vegetables

Firstly, vegetables should be stored separately from fruits. To do this, you must put them on different shelves in the refrigerator.

Secondly, you should wrap them in natural fabric that allows air to pass through and at the same time prevents mechanical damage.

Thirdly, for open storage it is necessary to use baskets. The best containers for this are made of wicker, wood or plywood.

Another way is to store different types of fruit in separate containers with holes for air access. In this case, it is recommended to use store containers, which are well suited for long-term storage.

The fifth method is to put greens in water. Freshly cut parsley, dill and other types of greens are stored according to the same principle as fresh flowers: in water they will not wither longer than with any other method of storage.
