No doubt keeping foods fresh for longer or at least making the most of their freshness is a bit of a challenge for most households, particularly in light of common issues such as busy schedules, power outages, or just not knowing what groceries should go where. Luckily, there are lots of tips that you can apply in ensuring that your foods don’t go stale too quickly or remain fresh for whenever you’re ready to eat them. Here are eleven of such ways to improve your access to fresh food:
Place vegetables in olive oil before freezing or keep them in water.
Preserving vegetables in oil not only keeps them fresh but takes your cooking even one step further when you’re ready to use. Alternatively, place them in a jar with water, as you would do your flowers, and change the water every other week to keep them for longer.
