Keep Sliced Apples Fresh: Simple Home Remedies to Prevent Browning

• Sliced apples turn black quickly due to oxidation, but simple home remedies can keep them fresh.
• Saltwater dip: Immerse sliced apples in cold water with a pinch of salt for 5-10 minutes to slow oxidation.
• Lemon juice application: Apply a thin layer of lemon juice to sliced apples to maintain their white color and freshness.
• Proper storage for whole apples: Store whole apples in a cool, dry place, preferably in the refrigerator in paper or perforated plastic bags.
• Avoid storing apples near ethylene-producing fruits like bananas to prevent premature ripening and spoilage.
