Producer:  Shreeja Bhattacharya

Store fruits and vegetables separately to prevent ethylene gas from causing early ripening and spoilage.

Keep leafy greens fresh by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and storing them in a sealed bag.

Refrigerate apples, berries, and grapes to extend their freshness and prevent mold and decay.

Store root vegetables like carrots and beets in a cool, dark place to keep them crisp and fresh.

Keep herbs fresh longer by placing their stems in a glass of water and covering them loosely with a plastic bag.

Store tomatoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, to preserve their flavor and texture.

Use a vinegar wash for berries to remove bacteria and mold spores, helping them last longer in the fridge.
