Waste-Saving Tips
Fruit Storage Tips
Store apples separately - they release ethylene gas that ripens other produce. Keep bananas away from other fruits and wrap the stems in plastic wrap. Store berries unwashed and only rinse before eating.
Vegetable Storage Tips
Store root vegetables in a cool, dark place. Keep lettuce and herbs fresh by wrapping them in slightly damp paper towels. Trim and store carrots and celery in water to maintain crispness.
Dairy Storage Tips
Store cheese in wax paper or cheese paper, not plastic wrap. Keep milk away from the door to maintain temperature. Freeze yogurt for smoothies before it expires. Store butter in an airtight container.
Bread Storage Tips
Store bread in a bread box or paper bag, not plastic. Freeze sliced bread and toast directly from frozen. Make breadcrumbs from stale bread. Keep artisan bread cut-side down on a cutting board.
Herb Storage Tips
Store hardy herbs like rosemary in damp paper towels. Keep basil at room temperature in water like flowers. Freeze herbs in olive oil in ice cube trays. Dry herbs by hanging them upside down.
Leftover Management Tips
Label containers with contents and date. Use clear containers to see what's inside. Organize fridge with "eat first" section. Freeze portions in reusable containers. Plan weekly leftover meals.
