Fresh produce is alive, and how you store it decides how long it lasts. A few small habits can add days to its life.
Leafy greens love moisture but hate sitting in water. Wrap them loosely in a clean kitchen towel and keep them in the crisper drawer.
Tomatoes should never go in the fridge until they are fully ripe — the cold dulls their flavour. Keep them stem-side down on the counter.
Store onions and potatoes separately in a cool, dark, ventilated place. Together they spoil each other faster.
