How to preserve strawberries? We all know that strawberries have a short shelf life. This is because strawberries are high in water content, delicate in tissue, prone to mechanical damage and microbial infection and decay. Under normal temperature, strawberry will change color and taste in 1-3 days. So if you want to eat fresh strawberries at any time, you must learn the right preservation skills. Let's get to know.
Method 1: put it in a ventilated place. If the weather is not cold or hot, you can put strawberries in a relatively ventilated place, which can generally be preserved for 1-2 days.
Method 2: put it in the refrigerator. If the weather is hot, you can store the strawberries in the refrigerator. Put the strawberries in a large plastic bag, tie the bag tightly to prevent water loss, dry shrinkage and discoloration. Then store them in the refrigerator at 0-3 ℃ and keep a certain constant temperature. Do not let the temperature rise or fall.
Method 3: use fresh film. If you can't finish eating strawberries, you can seal them with plastic wrap to ensure that they don't change color or shrink in a day. When using the plastic wrap, it should be firm and free of cracks, otherwise it will affect the effect.
Method 4: put it in a closed container. Before storing strawberries, wipe the strawberries clean, and don't touch them, or they will break faster. If it's winter, put the strawberries in a closed container to keep warm, and try to ensure that the storage temperature of strawberries is above zero.
