Winter Leafy Greens Spoiling? Pro Tips to Keep Them Fresh for a Week!
- •High humidity and cold weather spoil leafy greens quickly, leading to nutrient loss and food waste.
- •Avoid refrigerating wet leafy greens; dry them completely before storing to prevent fungus and spoilage.
- •Wrap dried greens in a clean cotton cloth or use airtight containers; store at 1-4°C in the fridge.
- •Keep leafy greens away from ethylene-releasing vegetables (tomatoes, potatoes, onions) and fruits (bananas, apples).
- •Store unwashed greens in paper bags for air circulation; choose dark green, fresh leaves at purchase.
Why It Matters: Proper storage methods are crucial to keep winter leafy greens fresh, nutritious, and reduce food waste.
