Storage instuction
Apples are harvested ripe and will lose their crispness if stored in your fruit bowl for more than a day or two. To maintain their crisp texture, apples should be kept in the coldest part of your refrigerator, well away from odor producing foods. Just as each apple variety tastes or looks different, they also store differently. Some may only last a few days in the refrigerator; others will keep for weeks. Because apples produce ethylene as they ripen, they should not be stored in plastic bags or anything that restricts air flow. Oxygen is important to ripening and maintaining good quality fruit, and lack of circulation can lead to moisture build-up and mold. To keep peeled or sliced apples from turning brown, drizzle or rub them with citrus juice. The acid will keep the flesh from oxidizing for several hours, making fresh cut apples the perfect addition to kids lunches. It will also add zip to the flavor of milder apples. |
