Spice storageAlways
store your herbs and spices away from heat and moisture in an airtight
container. This will prevent moisture from collecting in the herbs and
causing mold and mildew which can harm your family. It will also ensure
they stay fresh and that they do not overdry if in extreme heat. The
heat and direct sun can also cause bleaching of the herbs. You want
your herbs to be fresh in taste and sight so you can create the best
dish possible. So move that spice cabinet to the other side of the
kitchen. Bread in the RefrigeratorCooking
tips: Don't let bread go to waste, use smart food storage techniques.
Bread will keep up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator if you wrap it in
foil and store it on a low shelf. Storing BananasCooking tips
for storing foods: Cool
Food Storage is very effective! You can save ripe bananas for baking
later, just mash them and freeze in the amounts needed for your
recipes. If you are short on time just put them in the freezer,
unpeeled, and when ready to use let them defrost and peel. You barely
have to mash them, because they are already very soft. Grated
CheesePut a teaspoon of baking soda in
your container of grated cheese. Shake well before freezing and your cheese
will not stick together. Apple StorageIf the apples have been
stored in your refrigerator, they should be fine to eat for up to 2 months.
Ground Meat SafetyGround
meat will keep safely in the refrigerator for only 1 to 2 days. If you
don't plan on using it immediately, put it in the freezer where it will
keep for 3 months. Tough TomatoesThe
most effective Food storage for tomatoes is in a brown paper bag or
closed container. Adding an apple or pear to the container can also
hasten ripening. Store the tomatoes in a single layer and with the stem
ends up to avoid
bruising. Cucumber StorageTo
extend the life of a cucumber once it has been cut open, wrap it in a
paper towel and keep it in the vegetable drawer of your refrigerator.
Got Milk?Healthy
cooking tips: Expiration dates on milk are usually very conservative.
If the milk is properly stored, it should be fine to drink up to a week
after the date on the carton. Chicken SafetyUse smart food
storage techniques to protect yourself from Bacteria in raw chicken. -Marinade
in which raw chicken has been soaking should never be used on fully cooked
chicken. -Thaw frozen chicken in the refrigerator, not on the countertop.
-Freeze uncooked chicken if it is not going to be used within 2 days. .
Nuts!If
I am not planning to use nuts immediately, I like to store them in the
freezer to preserve their freshness. They will also crack more easily
after
freezing. Saving SaucePlace
any extra sauce or broth into a plastic ice cube tray. When they are
frozen, pop them out and put them in a ziploc bag for smart food
storage. If you measure out the sauce or broth before you freeze it,
you won't even have to defrost it when you need to use it, just toss it
into the pot. Fresh FishThe best way to keep fish really fresh
is to place the fish in a double plastic bag filled with water and place near
the freezer wall. Fish should never be refrozen. Group [EMAIL PROTECTED]
