🎯 Essential Food Storage Tips
🌡️ Temperature Control
Keep your refrigerator at 37-40°F and freezer at 0°F. Use a thermometer to monitor temperatures and ensure optimal storage conditions.
💨 Ethylene Gas
Some fruits produce ethylene gas that speeds ripening. Store ethylene producers (bananas, apples) away from sensitive items (lettuce, potatoes).
💧 Humidity Matters
Use your crisper drawers! High humidity for leafy greens, low humidity for fruits. Most vegetables need 90-95% humidity to stay fresh.
🚿 When to Wash
Don’t wash produce until ready to eat (except leafy greens). Excess moisture accelerates spoilage. Dry thoroughly before storing.
