[QUOTE="Yusra3, post: 333518, member: 31907"] Learning proper food storage methods saves money by reducing waste and keeps ingredients fresher longer. Follow these tips so you can optimize your grocery budget and make items last as long as possible: [B]Fruits & Veggies -[/B] Keep fresh produce that doesn’t need refrigeration, like tomatoes and bananas, on the countertop. Transfer others like berries and greens to breathable containers lined with paper towels then store in the high-humidity drawer of the fridge. [B]Bread Products -[/B] Double bag loaves of bread or buns to prevent drying out and place on the countertop for 2-3 days max. Freeze extras, separating slices with parchment first so they don’t stick together. Allow to thaw overnight before use. [B]Cheese -[/B] Wrap hard cheeses first in parchment then plastic wrap, squeezing out air pockets before refrigerating in sealed containers. The paper wicks away moisture accumulation. Soft cheeses fare better in their original packaging. [B]Leftovers -[/B] Let hot food cool slightly before transferring to airtight, shallow containers. This prevents overheating in the fridge. Label leftovers clearly with dates and contents. Position newer items in front to remember to use first. [B]Meat & Poultry -[/B] Keep raw protein chilled on lower shelves of refrigerator to prevent pathogens and cross-contamination. Freeze unused portions in an airtight freezer bag laid flat up to 3-4 months. [B]Eggs -[/B] Store eggs in their original carton which protects from absorbing flavors or drying out. For surplus eggs, beat lightly and freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. [B]Herbs & Vegetables -[/B] Snip off bottoms of fresh herb bunches and trim veggies before storage in containers filled with water. Cover loosely with produce bags and chill, changing water every 2 days. [B]Bulk Foods -[/B] Transfer large bags of pantry staples like flour, sugar and cereal to sealed plastic bins or glass jars labeled with contents and dates to keep away insects and humidity. Implementing smart storage tricks extends the shelf life of groceries, saving you frequent replacement trips to the market. And keeping an organized system means you’re actually more likely to use what you purchase before it expires! [/QUOTE]
