For storage and preparation don\’t store vegetables and fruits together. Fruits give off a ripening agent called ethylene that can prematurely ripen and spoil surrounding vegetables. For vegetables: Before you store, remove all rubber bands and ties. Trim leafy ends. To keep the vegetable from drying out leave an inch.

What are the steps to preparing fruits and vegetables

How should you properly prepare fruit and vegetables

Wash fruit and vegetables before cooking or eating them Vegetable and Fruit Prep

Make sure to wash all fresh berries, and other fruit and vegetables if eating them uncooked. It is very important to wash vegetables if there is any soil present, as soil may contain harmful bacteria. To wash vegetables, rub or brush them under a cold running tap.

What are the 3 tips for cleaning fruit and vegetables

Gently rub produce while holding under plain running water. There\’s no need to use soap or a produce wash. Use a clean vegetable brush to scrub firm produce, such as melons and cucumbers. Dry produce with a clean cloth or paper towel to further reduce bacteria that may be present.

Today I’m excited to share my tried-and-true tips for getting your produce to last as long as possible! I know no one likes spending a ton of money on food, only to have it go bad before they get around to eating it.

Fortunately, these fruit and vegetable prep tips will help you prepare and store your food, so you minimize waste, save money, and are more likely to eat healthy.

  • Bananas: Whenever I buy a bunch of bananas, I make sure to wrap the top in plastic wrap to make them last longer. You’ll see this sometimes at the grocery store—they do it to slow the ripening process! You can also slow the ripening process by placing bananas in the fridge. Although the peel will turn brown, the inside will ripen more slowly.
  • Avocados: I also like to place unripened fruit (like avocados) in the bowl with the bananas, since the bananas help speed up the ripening process for other fruits. Once the avocados reach the desired ripeness, I put them in the fridge to make them last a few more days. I keep both in a large bamboo bowl.
  • Tomatoes: During the research on preserving produce, I learned its actually best to store tomatoes on the countertop, rather than the fridge. Storing them in the fridge can change the flavor and texture, so it’s best to leave them at room temperature on the counter.
  • Carrots and celery: In contrast to berries, carrots and celery actually last long if they’re stored in water. You’ll often see that there’s water in bags of baby carrots, and that’s because it keeps them from drying out. So I like to chop my carrots and celery, then store them in a container with water.
  • Lettuce: I like to store my lettuce chopped and ready to go into a salad. I make sure to wash and dry it really well in my salad spinner, then add a paper towel at the bottom to soak up any moisture. You can also wash and dry the whole head of lettuce, then store it for wraps, burgers, etc.
  • Asparagus: Like herbs, asparagus will last longer if stored in water. Chop off the tough ends first, then store in about one inch of water, until ready to use.
  • Bell pepper/other vegetables: I store bell pepper directly in the crisper drawer, with a towel lining the bottom to soak up moisture. I replace the towel occasionally to keep everything fresh and dry. Remember to keep vegetables separated from fruit to make it last longer!
  • Apples and citrus: Apples and citrus store well together and will last longest in the fridge. Of course, if you’re going to eat it quickly, you can place it on the counter. But if you want it to last for several weeks, wash and dry them, then store them in the crisper drawer on a dry towel.
